When Nick Layton finds a girl lying dead in the courtyard of his Paris apartment, it sets in motion a police investigation searching for answers in skinhead violence at the mosque, arson-by-real estate, flashmobs in the Luxembourg Gardens, and an international Nietzsche hacker who wants the public to think, rather than consume. Nick's girlfriend Anne-Sophie gets in trouble deeper than she planned, as Commandant Chastel tries to sort out the virtual from the actual. Paris becomes a sublime Playground for Misunderstanding as the past reverberates into the present, throwing up sparks and threatening total paralysis. Or was it all an accident?
