Twenty years after the devastation caused by the Bloody Mary Virus, a new order has emerged based on two independent worlds. The citizens of the 'Above' society are controlled by media and powerful corporations and thrive in a glittering metropolis of glass and steel towers, entwined by elevated highways. The 'Below' society is riddled with criminals, undesirables and misfits, who must meet the needs of the 'Above' society in return for the right to survive…society's conscience wiped clean. Maintaining law and society order are veteran Headhunter Jack Wade and his reluctant new sidekick, the rebellious street kid Leeza X. In their journey into the dark underworld, they are forced to overcome something far more sinister than a simple human threat.
