Overview

A meek and frightened young woman fleeing her past buys a whole new personality on the black market. Now she feels compelled to kill people-and knows all the ways and means to do it. River is a romance novel set in the near future in Japan. Orphaned Zara'kath 'Spider' Watanabe is a classic Otaku-she has difficulty even leaving her apartment but is a master hacker and gamer.

Meanwhile the legal form of 'boosting' is available to the chosen few through MetaMind Incorporated. A different and more dangerous species of robot controls the destiny of millions through that corporation, as they systematically catalogue and analyse the human experience in preparation to take over-for profit or worse. Can Spider escape from her inner demons, or take revenge on the men who beat her and left her for dead? Does the mysterious and classically proportioned mechashell named River find a way to save the girl from suicide? Find out in River: A Dark Romance in the Kishotenketsu Style
