From the neural implant data log of Ransom Stark:       

	* Manhattan, 09/15/2094. 

	When Melissa Van Helsing invited me up to her daddy's 
	penthouse to reward me for that merc job, I admit I 
	had something other than money in mind, but getting 
	bitten and turned into a vampire wasn't it. Seems 
	there's a whole gang of these bloodsuckers, and they 
	want me to join them.     
	
	 Their mistake. This time they've bitten off more 
	than they can swallow.        
	
	 No way I'll follow old Van Helsing's commands. I'll 
	see him and his whole gang dead, permanently, for 
	what they've done to me.       
	
	 But first I have to find a cure for this curse. 
	Somewhere in this lousy city, somebody knows something 
	that can help me. Maybe in the labs at TransTechnicals, 
	the rotten megacorporation that practically runs this 
	town. Maybe in the Underground, among the rogue 
	genetechs and cyberscientists who work on the razor's 
	edge of technology. And maybe in Cyberspace, the bizarre 
	virtual reality that links everyone on the datanet, legal 
	and illegal.    
	
	 And I can't forget Deirdre Tackett, the nervenet angel 
	who installed my neural implant and saved my life. 
	Van Helsing's kidnapped her, and it's only a matter of 
	time before she gives him the secret of Incubus, the 
	ultimate icebreaker, the key to absolute control of 
	cyberspace. Somehow, I must save her.       
	
	 Van Helsing. I'll get that creep if I have to hack my 
	way through every decker, rage ganger, and security ICE 
	in Manhattan. He'll wish he'd never heard of Ransom Stark.       
	
	 If only I weren't getting ... so thirsty ....
