Mark Halyard arbeitet als Umweltverträglichkeitskoordinator bei der Brahmasamudram Mining Company, die im Tiefseebergbau tätig ist und versehentlich den Lebensraum eines wenig bekannten Putzerfischs, des Gemeinen Lumpfischs, vernichtet hat. Um die Zerstörung des Planeten einzudämmen, sind Unternehmen gesetzlich verpflichtet, für viel Geld Auslöschungszertifikate zu erwerben, falls sie an der Ausrottung einer Spezies mitwirken. Allerdings hat sich Halyard mit Leerverkäufen von Lumpfisch-Zertifikaten verspekuliert. Nachdem er auf fallende Preise gewettet hat, stellt ein mysteriöser Hackerangriff auf diverse Biobanken, in denen Gewebeproben und Genomdaten gefährdeter Arten gespeichert werden, das System auf den Kopf. Alle Back-ups für den Gemeinen Lumpfisch sind futsch, und der Preis für Lumpfisch-Zertifikate geht durch die Decke. Halyards einzige Hoffnung ist, mithilfe der Lumpfisch-Expertin Karin Resaint irgendwo ein Exemplar des Fischs aufzutreiben, damit die Spezies nicht als ausgerottet gilt ... Ned Beaumans neuer Roman ist Literatur mit hohem Drehmoment, ein Buch voller Kapriolen, rasant und mit großer Fabulierfreude erzählt. Noch nie wurden die wichtigen Themen unserer Zeit so humorvoll auf den Punkt gebracht wie hier.
