Welcome to the future of police investigations. Virtual realities had evolved and are used both for training and for pleasure. And one day, the owner of one of the places where people can rent the space and equipment to experience it, calls the police - there is a man that seem to be making up his mind towards killing a woman.
The problem of course is that it is not proof - intentions are not enough and them being from a virtuality does not help much. And the team decides that they need to show more protect the woman -- without being discovered by the colleagues... or the woman. Falling in love with her was definitely not the plan.
It is a nice story, despite the cliched characters of the policemen, and it works in some ways. Original it may not be, but it is readable and entertaining. show less
