Immobility

Before the Kollaps, Detective Josef Horkai was the one they called in whenever an investigation hit a wall, the guy who barreled his way into a room full of hostages and barreled back out with nobody dead but the man holding the gun. He’s still pretty certain that he’s the best, even if now there are very few other people still alive to compete with, even if the rules of the game have completely changed.

Only problem is he’s been exposed to something that’s slowly killing him. His hair has fallen out, his teeth are all but gone, his legs are already all but useless, and he can feel the feeling slowly seeping out of his fingers. Which is why they’ve kept him frozen, held in suspended animation until they figure out what’s wrong with him. Only as it turns out it’s not all the way suspended. He can feel time oozing slowly past, has a vague sense of the world going on without him. How many years have gone by? How many decades?

And then suddenly someone claiming to be a friend thaws him out, tells him he’s needed. Something crucial has been stolen—though with the pain in his head its hard for him to keep straight what and why. He’s got to get it back or something bad—what was it again?—is going to happen. And he’s got to get it back so they can freeze him again before his own time runs out.

Is he dreaming? Or is he really awake, paralyzed from the waist down, being carried around on the back of an “assistant” who he never remembers meeting before? Why do the injections mean to help him seem to be making things worse? And why does he increasingly feel like he’s being asked not to solve a crime but to commit one?
