The Kessler Protocol

You are a freelance "Ghost," a deniable asset hired to infiltrate the heavily fortified Kessler-Arasaka Biotech arcology and extract "The Muse"—a prototype AI consciousness. The payout will buy your way out of the New Meridian sprawl forever, but there is a catch: you have sixty minutes before the arcology's internal security network locks down.

Trapped inside with every counter-intrusion asset in the corporation's arsenal, every second counts. Choose your entry strategy, manage your time units before the heat index rises, and decide the fate of a digital mind that could change humanity forever.
