 In the near future where "the combine" controls television and news, a bomb threat brings super cop Jansen to the combine s headquarters. Nothing happens, but his boss gives him four days to solve the hoax. Odd things occur: on day one there s a murder at the combine; vague references to the combine s enemy, Krysmopompas, appear; the nephew of the combine s boss confesses to the bomb threat, although he didn t do it. Jansen stays focused, interviewing employees who received special awards (printed on the paper used for the bomb threat). Is he onto something big or was the bomb threat just a prank? And what is this 31st floor rumored hidden in the 30-story combine headquarters?
