Publisher's summary
Grande-Bretagne. Futur proche.
La monarchie constitutionnelle parlementaire qu'on croyait éternelle a laissé place au Système, un mode de démocratie directe où le citoyen est fortement incité à participer et voter. La population est surveillée en permanence par le Témoin : la somme de toutes les caméras de surveillance et de tout le suivi numérique que permettent les smartphones et autres objets connectés.
Alors qu'elle est soumise à une lecture mentale, la dissidente Diana Hunter décède. Mielikki Neith, une inspectrice de Témoin, fidèle au Système, est chargée de l'enquête. Alors qu'elle devrait être en mesure d'explorer la mémoire de Hunter, Mielikki se retrouve confrontée à trois mémoires différentes : celle d'un financier grec attaqué par un requin, celle d'une alchimiste et celle d'un vieux peintre éthiopien.
Pour Neith, un incroyable voyage au cœur de la pensée humaine commence. Aussi surprenant que dangereux.

Story
In the world of Gnomon, citizens are constantly observed and democracy has reached a pinnacle of "transparency". Every action is seen, every word is recorded, and the System has access to its citizens' thoughts and memories - all in the name of providing the safest society in history. When suspected dissident Diana Hunter dies in government custody, it marks the first time a citizen has been killed during an interrogation. The System doesn't make mistakes, but something isn't right about the circumstances surrounding Hunter's death.

Story
Lester Ferris needs a rest. He's spent his life being shot at, and Afghanistan was the last stop on his road to exhaustion. Mancreu is the ideal place for Lester to relax. A former British colony, soon to be destroyed because of its very special version of toxic pollution. But Lester Ferris makes a friend: a street kid with a comicbook fixation who will need a home - who might, Lester hopes, become an adopted son. But in a place like Mancreu, just what sort of hero will the boy need?

Story
Cal Sounder is a detective working for the police on certain very sensitive cases. So when he’s called in to investigate a homicide at a local apartment, he’s surprised by the routineness of it all. But when he arrives on scene, Cal soon learns that the victim—Roddy Tebbit, an otherwise milquetoast techie—is well over seven feet tall. And although he doesn’t look a day over thirty, he is ninety-one years old. Tebbit is a Titan—one of this dystopian, near-future society’s genetically altered elites. And this case is definitely Cal’s thing.

Story
Joe Spork repairs clocks, a far cry from his late father, a flashy London gangster. But when Joe fixes one particularly unusual device, his life is suddenly upended. Joe's client, Edie Banister, is more than just a kindly old lady - she's a former superspy. And the device? It's a 1950s doomsday machine. And having triggered it, Joe now faces the wrath of both the government and a diabolical South Asian dictator, Edie's old arch-nemesis.
