Bastian Balthazar Bux is a leading member of The Federation, the European network of civil society and local governments. Bastian has just been unexpectedly dumped through an app, the BreakupShopT service. Heavy hearted, he just wants to drink, get on with work and forget his romantic woes.

However, he discovers that Nathan Ziggy Zukowsky is planning to sell Plebiscitum, a dating-style app that is meant to replace elections with a simple swipe, at the same conference he is invited to attend in Chile. Haunted by the ghosts of his recent relationship, he finds himself without his all-important Morph phone, just a few hours before embarking on his trip to try to save democracy.
