Philadelphia, some time in the 21st century - Casper Beech is a
corporate drone, a man beaten down by debt, a wage-slave to the
Consortium that dominates the American economy. One day his boss
sends him in for neural imprinting - to have new job skills
implanted directly in his brain, because it's faster and cheaper
than training him by older methods. But a computer glitch loads the
wrong file, and Casper is programmed with something that has
nothing to do with his job. Instead of learning a new software
package, he learns a new way of thinking - a mindset designed by a
secret government agency for use in enemy nations, and never meant
to be unleashed in the United States. Lethal government agents seek
to correct the error in a steadily-escalating conflict, while
Casper struggles to survive, to remain true to himself despite his
new programming, and to find out just what was in... THE SPARTACUS
