520    "Conspiracies abound in this surreal and yet all-too-real 
       technothriller, detailing an underground alternate reality
       game, set in the same world as the popular Rabbits 
       podcast. Rabbits is a secret, dangerous, and occasionally 
       fatal underground alternate reality game, where the prizes
       are unclear but may involve vast sums of money, NSA or CIA
       recruitment, or perhaps even the key to unlocking the 
       secrets of the universe itself. Since the game first 
       started in 1959, ten iterations have appeared and nine 
       winners have been declared. No one knows the true identity
       of these winners--just their now-famous user names. And 
       everyone is waiting for the eleventh round to begin. K is 
       an expert on the game, although he's never played it 
       himself. He runs information sessions for amateurs at an 
       historic, grungy arcade. But when he is approached by 
       billionaire Alan Scarpio--the alleged winner of the sixth 
       iteration--his world is turned upside down. Because 
       Scarpio wants his help fixing the game, which he claims 
       has become corrupted. And if the eleventh iteration begins
       before the game is repaired, he claims, all hell will 
       break loose. Soon K is in way over his head, chasing down 
       a myserious rabbit hole that is getting stranger and 
       twistier and more perilous by the day. Because, as it 
       happens, he blows the deadline, Eleven begins...and 
       suddenly there is far more than just his own life at 
       risk..."--|cProvided by publisher.
