From the author of ''Tex Murphy and the Pandora Directive'' and ''Tex Murphy: Under a Killing Moon'' comes the latest thrilling adventure in the series.Tex Murphy is an old-school P.I. living in the New San Francisco of 2043. He fancies himself hard-boiled, but is more like sunny-side up. Hes also been known to get fried, scrambled and poached.Hes just solved the biggest case of his life (so far) and actually got paid for it. After a romantic dinner with the lovely and elusive Chelsee Bando, Tex is in love, out of debt and on top of the world. What could possibly go wrong?When Tex wakes up, disoriented and head pounding, on the fire escape outside his office at the Ritz Hotel, he soon discovers that all his memories since that night with Chelsee have been erased. Years have passed and everything in Texs life has changed. Old friends are hostile. Former enemies are now allies. And Chelsee is gone
maybe forever.Whoever did this could have given Tex a one-way ticket to zombie land by wiping his memory completely
but they didnt. There was something specific they wanted him to forget. But what?And who was behind it? The rival P.I. who was doing surveillance on Texs office and turns up murdered? One of the mysterious characters racing to find a priceless collection of Nikola Teslas documents and lost inventions? Or the shadowy organization thats made a fortune in cryonics freezing (and, rumor has it, reanimating) dead bodies?Tex Murphy, the last of the old-school gumshoes, is on the case for himself this time. Motivated by lost love, revenge and the worlds strongest coffee blend, Tex will need every bit of his questionable social skills, relatively quick thinking, blind luck and the ol Murphy charm. Only by investigating his own past can Tex hope to regain his memory in time to solve the mysteries of the past and present and prevent a devastating future.
