Cayce Pollard is an expensive, spookily intuitive market-research consultant.
In London on a job, she is offered a secret assignment: to investigate some
intriguing snippets of video that have been appearing on the Internet.
"Gibson's recent novels have displayed a certain weariness with the tropes of
science fiction. The completely contemporary 'Pattern Recognition' finds the
author rejuvenated, ready to acknowledge that the world has become a stranger
place than could have been imagined even 15 years ago. It's his best book in a
long time, and perhaps his most accessible one ever."
