In 2045, immortality became a reality. Now people can be digitized, after which they acquire a potentially endless life in the form of virtual Copies.

His clients do not yet know that the City of Perestroika touches the deep properties of the Universe and opens up truly unimaginable prospects for the development of all mankind Only the promised paradise can turn into a nightmare, and the ideal refuge may already have other hosts.
