A few years from now, the world won't be such a different place.After all, the flying cars we were promised when we were kids never materialized.And that egalitarian society science fiction showed us? It's still a distant fantasy as the rich get richer and everybody else just struggles to get by.That, especially, doesn't show any sign of changing any time soon.So, a few years from now, the world will be a pretty familiar place: Rich people living in gated communities at one end of the spectrum; poor people living in slums at the other end.And cops standing between them.Cops busting their asses to make the world a safer place, even though they realize it's an endless struggle. Without ever stopping to think that maybe, just maybe, by keeping the status quo, they are the reason it's an endless struggle.That kind of thinking is definitely way above the pay grade of one average detective ...... who is handed just an average murder case ...... with a macabre twist.So he does what he always does: plugs along the only way he knows how, putting the pieces together one-by-one, knowing it will eventually lead him to the murderer.But the pieces just don't fit with the picture of the world he grew up with.Yes, a few years from now, the world won't be such a different place.So don't expect any goddamn flying cars.
