Underground

In the near future, the Underground is a covert organization that is functioning within our global society-guiding and influencing it but not necessarily controlling it. For security purposes, the only link the members of the Underground have to one another is an extremely guarded computer network that is maintained and accessed via the Internet. The Underground was created by ASHTON NASH-a visionary who is thoroughly disgusted with the injustices, hypocrisies, and double standards of our global society; therefore, he is determined to right the wrongs of human civilization: culturally, politically, economically, educationally, and religiously. Through a twist of fate brought about by the internal corruption of the Underground, Harrison Foxx, Ashton Nash's high school buddy, finds himself in the middle of a battle for control over the Underground's vast political and financial resources. After Nash's apparent accidental death, various interest groups-business leaders, federal agents, and scientists-hunt Foxx across the country in hopes of gaining his knowledge of the Underground's computer network.
