Former topnotch attorney Parker Stern, still crippled by courtroom stage
fright, takes on a dicey case for an elusive video game designer known
to the world only by the name of "Poniard."  In Poniard's blockbuster
online video game, Abduction!, a real-life movie mogul is charged
with kidnapping and murdering a beautiful actress who disappeared in
the 1980s. Predictably, the mogul--William "the Conqueror" Bishop--has
responded with a libel lawsuit. Now it's up to Parker to defend the game
designer in the suit.In defending Poniard, Parker discovers
that people aren't who they claim to be and that nothing is as it seems.
At one point, his client resorts to blackmail, threatening to expose a
dark secret about Parker. Then, many of the potential witnesses who
could have helped the case die prematurely, and the survivors are too
frightened to talk. Parker begins to feel as if he's merely a character
in a video game, fighting malevolent Level Bosses who appear out of
nowhere and threaten to destroy him.
