New Babylon

Welcome to the future. On planet Earth, there are no more states, borders, nationalities, or religions. Everyone is called Earthlings, there is a single currency, peso-mundo, and the international language is Spanish, as it is the most popular. There is... no more gasoline, nor cars; all vehicles can only be found in museums, while people travel instantly to any point on the planet—through teleportation. And there is only one president in the whole world—Galileo Nimrod. In 2058, the Constitution of the new world was adopted, declaring that henceforth there is only one people and one language, everyone is equal and free, and everyone has the right to teleportation. And no one can be teleported against their will. What rules everything, in essence, is a computer brain, the global algorithm 'Pangaea', whose aim is to make human life as comfortable and problem-free as possible. Earthlings began to forget what violent crimes are. But one day, on a tropical island that became home to ten retirees, the unimaginable happened— all ten peaceful islanders were brutally murdered. And then other crimes followed. A team of three super-police officers begins the investigation, and simultaneously, an ambitious reporter conducts his own investigation...
Michel Bussi has stepped into uncharted territory for him in his new novel—fantasy and dystopia. But he did it with his characteristic elegance, ease, and ability to surprise with unexpected plot twists. The new novel will have everything: philosophical reflections, a dynamic plot, romance, and of course, a detective story.
