As they confront complex cyber-crimes and international conspiracies, the existence of a mysterious, unidentified hacker known as "the Pupper Master" emerges on the horizon of their investigation. What fate awaits Kusanagi?
And what is the Puppet Master's true objective?
A new era of cyberbunk action begins.
