“Channel 43 – Become your best self.”
After nearly losing their lives downloading a secret file from unscrupulous Mega-Corp, RamCo, infamous hacker Kristoph and his best friend Elene discover that it is the key behind RamCo’s upcoming Channel43, a broadcast designed to brainwash viewers and turn them into mindless drones, devoid of individuality and personality, loyal only to RamCo.
Kristoph and Elene recruit a team of skilled individuals to help them stop Channel43’s launch, including a RamCo renegade, Kristoph’s estranged brother Paul, and Ariel, an Underground spy and Kristoph’s ex-lover.
As the team makes preparations, cracks begin to form. Kristoph continues to suffer the effects of RamCo’s previous torture, Ariel’s jealousy of Kristoph and Elene’s friendship makes her consider sabotage, and Paul’s prior exposure to Channel43’s programming makes him question the team’s every decision.
Will they succeed in saving the world from RamCo’s control? Or will their individual freedoms and differences, the very things they are fighting for, be what causes them to fail?
Mind Match concludes the story that began in Mind Games and continued in Mind Sets.
