Proxy by Gary Gibson

In the future, you can become anyone else.

All it takes is an injectable bead that dissolves within a few hours. In the meantime, you can walk around in another person’s skin, see through their eyes…and kill with their hands.

When Ray Thomas is hired to find the daughter of his sworn enemy, the private detective soon learns there’s more to the illegal bio-implant technology known as proxy than body-swapping.

Proxy dealer Elijah wants to know who’s trying to kill him, and how it’s connected to a new kind of proxy that’s hit the streets.

What they each discover on the streets of a near-future London crippled by multiple pandemics has the potential to change the course of civilisation…so long as they can stop the wrong people from getting their hands on it first.

Cyberpunk-laced future noir from the author of Stealing Light, Extinction Game and Echogenesis.
