The excerpt follows Turner’s pursuit and the aftermath of a violent attack that reaches from New Delhi to Singapore, with his body reconstructed by a Dutch surgeon. It depicts ROM-generated simstim memories, simulated boyhood experiences, and the unsettling commodification of human parts. The narrative blends espionage momentum with vivid sensory details and speculative bioengineering.","Sprawl Trilogy 2  \nHarper&Row  \nCover Title Page Dedication Epigraph  \n1 Smooth Running Gun  \n2 Marly  \n3 Bobby Pulls a Wilson  \n4 Clocking In  \n5 The Job  \n6 Barrytown  \n7 The Mall  \n8 Paris  \n9 Up the Projects  \n10 Alain  \n1 1 On Site  \n12 Café Blanc  \n13 With Both Hands  \n14 Nightflight  \n15 Box  \n16 Legba  \n17 The Squirrel Wood  \n18 Names of the Dead  \n19 Hypermart  \n20 Orly Flight  \n21 Highway Time  \n22 Jammer’s  \n23 Closer  \n24 Run Straight Down  \n25 Kasual/Gothick  \n26 The Wig  \n27 Stations of the Breath  \n28 Jaylene Slide  \n29 Boxmaker  \n30 Hired Man  \n31 Voices  \n32 Count Zero  \n33 Wrack and Whirl  \n34 A Chain ’Bout Nine Miles Long  \n35 Tally Isham  \n36 The Squirrel Wood  \nAbout The Author By The Same Author Copyright  \nFOR MY D Quiero hacer contigo lo que la primavera hace con los cerezos  \n– Neruda  \nCOUNT ZERO INTERRUPT  \n– On receiving an interrupt, decrement the counter to zero.  \nThey set a slamhound on Turner’s trail in New Delhi, slotted it to his pheromones and the colour of his hair. It caught up with him on a street called Chandni Chauk and came scrambling for his rented BMW through a forest of bare brown legs and pedicab tyres. Its core was a kilogramme of recrystallized hexogene and flaked TNT.  \nHe didn’t see it coming. The last he saw of India was the pink stucco façade of a place called the Khush-Oil Hotel.  \nBecause he had a good agent, he had a good contract. Because he had a good contract, he was in Singapore an hour after the explosion. Most of him, anyway. The Dutch surgeon liked to joke about that, how an unspecified percentage of Turner hadn’t made it out of Palam International on that first flight, and had to spend the night there in a shed, in a support vat.  \nIt took the Dutchman and his team three months to put Turner together again. They cloned a square metre of skin for him, grew it on slabs of collagen and shark-cartilage polysaccharides. They bought eyes and genitals on the open market. The eyes were green.  \nHe spent most of those three months in a ROM-generated simstim construct of an idealized New England boyhood of the previous century. The Dutchman’s visits were grey dawn dreams, nightmares that faded as the sky lightened beyond his second-floor bedroom window. You could smell the lilacs, late at night. He read Conan Doyle by the light of a sixty-watt bulb behind a parchment shade printed with clipper ships. He masturbated in the smell of clean cotton sheets and thought about cheerleaders. The Dutchman opened a door in his back brain and came strolling in to ask questions, but in the morning his mother called him down to Wheaties, eggs and bacon, coffee with milk and sugar.  \nAnd one morning he woke in a strange bed, the Dutchman standing beside a window spilling tropical green and a sunlight that hurt his eyes.
