‘We want you to go to hell, Miss Thomas.’

For five million bucks Ella is prepared to give even hell – or in this case, the Demi-Monde – a shot. And all she has to do to earn it is find the President’s daughter and lead her to safety. But as Ella discovers, getting into the Demi-Monde is the easy part; surviving to collect her money is quite another.

With thirty million digital-Duplicates at war in the cyber-killing field that is the US Military’s virtual-training ground, the Demi-Monde is a challenging place – especially as the Dupes are programmed with a craving for blood and are led by some of history’s most vicious tyrants. And the many bizarre conceits in the Demi-Monde have a sinister reason behind them.

In the Demi-Monde Ella can trust nothing and nobody . . . not even herself.
