Opis

-A wild mash-up of Raymond Chandler, Philip K. Dick, and William S. Burroughs- (Stewart O'Nan, author of The Odds), the near-future thriller Tomorrow and Tomorrow is an insightful exploration of humanity's relationship with evolving virtual environments and an accurate portrayal of how the technology that was developed to connect people inevitably isolates them...
Pittsburgh is John Dominic Blaxton's home even though the city has been uninhabitable ruin and ash for the past decade. The Pittsburgh Dominic lives in is the Archive, an immersive virtual reconstruction of the city's buildings, parks, and landmarks, as well as the people who once lived there. Including Dominic's wife and unborn child.
When he's not reliving every recorded moment with his wife in an endless cycle of desperation and despair, Dominic investigates mysterious deaths preserved in the Archive before Pittsburgh's destruction. His latest cold case is the apparent murder of a woman whose every appearance is deliberately being deleted from the Archive.
Obsessed with uncovering this woman's identity and what happened to her, Dominic follows a trail from the virtual world into reality. But finding the truth buried deep within an illusion means risking his sanity and his very existence...
