Review
Manhattan in the not-too-distant future seems a lot like Tokyo. Two friends who live on the margin try for one big score. One is Fox, older, limping, philosophical. The other is X. They stand to make $100 million from Maas, a conglomerate, if they can steal the secrets of a genetics company, Hosaka, and its genius leader, Hitoshi. They enlist Sandii, a call girl, to fly to Merrekech, where Hosaka's laboratory is, to seduce Hitoshi. During the set up, X falls in love with Sandii; Fox is cynical about the relationship. She heads for Morocco; Maas is ready to wire $100 million to a Swiss bank account; X fears for Sandii's safety. Will it all work out? |
