Mind Park Robert Lundeen

In the future, technology has made reality itself replaceable. Billions of people live permanently inserted into virtual worlds, escaping the true reality of unemployment, mass poverty, and a corrupted oligarchy. All you must give is your right to vote in proxy, a meaningless gesture when you won't even remember the world where you gave it.

These virtual worlds ("Parks") are controlled by massive corporations locked in a vicious competition for members. Hackers and terrorists mount incursions into the Parks of competing corporations with the sole mission of murdering as many people as possible, weakening their opponents' political buying power.

Isaac Pember is a Warden with the failing Dachous Corporation, a specialist trained to enter the Parks and stop the incursions before their rampage claims too many profitable lives. But Dachous has a mission for which Isaac is unprepared. A hunt for a missing mind reveals a brutal conspiracy that could mean the end of the Parks and every resident within.
