Nemesis plot
"In the future... it pays to be more than human."
In the year 2027 it is possible to upgrade your body with cybernetic implants. Agent Alex Rain has gone through quite a few upgrades when he is badly damaged/injured during a shootout involving members of the terrorist organization the Red Army Hammerhead. When Alex recovers, he quits his job and heads to Rio to pursue a career as a smuggler. However, Alex is kidnapped by his ex-boss, Farnsworth, and forced to do one last job. The Hammerheads have stolen plans for a Japanese-American summit, and Alex must track down and take out the terrorists.
