Part satire, part literary thriller, The Red Men is the story of former radical journalist turned technologist, Nelson Millar. After years drifting comfortably through a powerful corporation, Nelson finds himself at the helm of a grand project whose goals appear increasingly authoritarian and potentially catastrophic.
The Red Men is a novel about a man wrestling with his conscience, his loyalty to his family and his work, and his desire not to make waves, set against a pervasive and Orwellian vision of contemporary society: surveillance, automation, biotechnology, and their implications for our humanity.
