Scrubbed Christopher Malinger

In the not too distant future, Frank Fitzsimons, a literary agent in his former life, has been released from prison having undergone a memory reprogramming known as scrubbed. His reintroduction into Can-American society, an amalgamation of the United States and Canada after The Great Upheaval, is assisted in this transformation through the efforts of Dasha Kozar, a high ranking member within this female governed society. After a preliminary interview, Dasha drives Frank Fitzsimons to his new place of employment, Central Consortium's headquarters, a Can-American agency that handles all the information within the government. Dasha will be Frank's mentor during the process. When the two of them report for work, they are informed by Samantha Brighton, the supervisor of the propaganda division, that there has been a breach in their ultra-secure pneumatic delivery system. Dasha's reputation and her family's political influence make her a trusted operative for Brighton's quest to retrieve the stolen data and reclaim her damaged reputation. But things don't go as planned and Frank is caught in a web of deceit.
