How do you solve a crime when the last thing you want to know is the truth?

In a dystopian future, insurance fraud investigator William Gold arrives in Shanghai to investigate a forgery ring for "papelles", futuristic passports that record people's identities and genetics.

But when one of Gonzalez's customers is found dead, Gold is sent back to Shanghai to complete the investigation.
