Tagging along on a Canadian government trade mission to South America is a strange dot-com startup called Hypothesys, an Internet-based "morality machine" that helps users navigate through the thorniest of personal problems. After a brief spate of convention-going, the Hypothesys team - tycoons Marcus Wallace and Jonathon Bates, an American executive, a fashionable, pregnant Brit, and their translator, Crossman - embark on an ecotour cruise up the Rio Negro. They are abducted and tortured, seemingly at random, by a handful of anonymous guerrillas, and then things really take a turn for the worse.
