"Internet Meme. Class One. Virulent. Meet Edinburgh Detective Inspector Liz Kavanaugh, head of the Innovative Crime Investigation Unit, otherwise known as the Rule 34 Squad. It's responsible for monitoring the Internet, following trends to determine whether people are engaging in harmless fantasies--or illegal activities. Usually their job uncovers those operating on the extreme fringes of the run-of-the-mill porn that still, in 2023, abounds in cyberspace. But occasionally, more disturbing patterns arise... Three ex-cons have been murdered, in Germany, Italy, and Scotland. The only things they had in common were arrests for spamming--and a taste for unorthodox erotica. As the first officer on the scene of the most recent death, Liz finds herself rapidly sucked into an international investigation that isn't asking so much who the killer is as what it is--and if she can't figure that out, a lot more people are going to die as the homicides go viral... ."--Dustjacket.
