Two of his comrades, Finch and Mullet, begin to express doubts about his sanity.

In what he at first believes to be a dream or hallucination, he meets a woman with wings, who gives him a feather. The first character introduced is a man called Paul Jonas, apparently an infantryman on the Western Front of the First World War. The book tells the story of a group of ordinary people who are drawn into the network to stop them. These men include: Felix Jongleur, who was a child at the time of the First World War and is currently the world's oldest man Jiun Biao, a Chinese economist described as "the terror of Asia" and Robert Wells, the owner of Telemorphix, the world's largest telecommunications company. The novel tells the story of a frightening virtual network created by a group of rich men known as The Grail Brotherhood.
