It's a novel set in a parrarrel dimension Chile where the coup against Allende was foiled by General Pinochet, and an apparent socialist utopia has been created in few short years afterwards. A few years before the 1973 coup, the government was working together with a cybernetics researcher named Stafford Beer to implement in Chile a sort of a system similar to the proto-Internet. That actually happened and is not the author's invention, but from this real event that the author starts to invent a universe where Chile has continued to develop this seemingly wondrous project and placed itself at the forefront of world technological progress. The year is 1979 and a daughter of a self-exiled general returns to the country and unravels the truth about SYNCO (System of Information and Control).

The book is truly weird, like a retro-futuristic take on The Man in the High Castle mixed with Terry Gilliam's Brazil and a lot of BioShock (Infinite too), some The Matrix.
