The Body Scout

Sobre el libro The Body Scout de Lincoln Mitchel publicado por Hachette UK al 2021:

In the future you can have any body you want—as long as you can afford it. But in a New York ravaged by climate change and repeat pandemics, Kobo is barely scraping by. He scouts the latest in gene-edited talent for Big Pharma-owned baseball teams, but his own cybernetics are a decade out of date and twin sister loan sharks are banging down his door. Things couldn´t get much worse. Then his brother—Monsanto Mets slugger J.J. Zunz—is murdered at home plate. Determined to find the killer, Kobo plunges into a world of genetically modified CEOs, philosophical Neanderthals, and back-alley body modification, only to quickly find he´s in a game far bigger and more corrupt than he imagined. To keep himself together while the world is falling apart, he´ll have to navigate a time where both body and soul are sold to the highest bidder.
