Gender-bent? But What Even Is City of Sin?!

Bai Ling, an agent of the Special Science Bureau, is dragged into a virtual reality game in a parallel world while on a mission. Staring at the unfamiliar young woman’s face in the mirror, then at the wholesome, five-star-citizen commentary on the game forums, and then at the morally upstanding city outside the window, Bai Ling falls into a long, long silence. There is no order here. The only thing worth trusting is a bullet. But with a rewind function that lets her slip back into the past, Bai Ling can build an identity out of thin air and rewrite history however she pleases. Yesterday, she could be a member of a Federal Security Bureau special operations squad. Tomorrow, she might be the figure whose name alone makes the Empire’s nights run cold.
