Welcome to the future. There are no more states, borders, nationalities, religions on planet Earth. Everyone is called Earthlings, there is a single currency, peso-mundo, and the international language is Spanish as the most popular one. There is no more gasoline, and there are no cars, all vehicles can be found only in museums, people move instantly to any point of the planet - by teleportation. And there's only one president in the whole world - Galileo Nemrod. In 2058 the Constitution of the new world was issued, which declared that from now on there is only one nation and one language, all are equal and free and all have the right to teleportation. And no one can be teleported against their will. And everything is ruled, in fact, by a computer brain, a global algorithm "Pangaea", the purpose of which is to make people's lives as comfortable and problem-free as possible. Earthlings have begun to forget what violent crime is. But one day on a tropical island that became home to ten retirees, the unthinkable happened - all ten civilians on the island were brutally murdered. And then other crimes followed. A team of three super police officers begins to investigate, and in parallel, an ambitious reporter conducts his own investigation...
