Infos

'Bekvalac bursts onto the scene with a deftly-written SF noir tale of memory, identity and self-awareness' - AJ DeaneThe city of iRemember shimmers in the desert haze, watched over by the Bureau, a government agency that maintains control through memory surveillance and little pink pills made from the narcotic plant Tranquelle. It looks like an oasis under its geodesic dome, but the city is under siege. 'Off-Gridder' insurgents are fighting to be forgotten. Bureau Inspector Icara Swansong is on a mission to neutralise the threat. Her investigation leads her into iRemember's secret underbelly, where she finds herself a fugitive from the very system she had vowed to protect. She has to learn new rules: trust no one. Behind every purple Tranquelle stalk lurk double-agents. A sci-fi noir with a psychedelic twist, iRemember explores the power the past holds over us and the fragility of everything: what is, what once was, and what will be.
