But some want to go farther. Tek takes them there. It's a bio-digital microchip more powerful and mind-altering than any other drug ever known. For those who become addicted, it's out of this world ... and straight into hell. And only one man can stop it. TekWar: Four years ago, Greater Los Angeles lawman Jake Cardigan was framed for dealing Tek, losing his badge, his good name, and his freedom. When he's released from cryo-prison early, his search for answers takes him to Mexico, where a rogue scientist is attempting to rid the world of Tek. Aiding this quest is the right thing to do, but for an ex-con, doing good can be the most dangerous decision of all.
