'Evil has been unleashed on the earth and a monster is stalking the devastated, riot-torn streets of Sydney's Gratification District.
'The resistance war against the Dictatorship ruling the independent country of New South Wales is reaching a crescendo, when the gruesome murder of Pleasure Technicians in the Gratification District comes to the attention of B.D. Goodsell.
'Goodsell, a resistance fighter, has been searching for his girlfriend Shane for over five years, since her kidnapping by the State Army to be indoctrinated into the ranks of the Pleasure Technicians.
It becomes a race against time and seemingly insurmountable odds for B.D. Goodsell to destroy the monster stalking the dark streets and find the girl he loves before she becomes yet another victim'. (Source: back cover blurb.)
