Normal es un centro para el tratamiento de trastornos psíquicos de científicos, economistas, estrategas mentales... Todos tienen en común el haberse dedicado a analizar qué pasará en el futuro. Bajo una estricta vigilancia y sometidos a una medicación intensa, están divididos en dos grupos que no se comunican entre sí: el de los que se dedican a la "previsión estratégica", que dependen de instituciones sin ánimo de lucro y que buscan cómo evitar los desastres que se avecinan (cambio climático, guerras devastadoras, rapaces gobiernos disfuncionales...); y los de "predicción estratégica", a sueldo de empresas y "think tanks" de seguridad, que dan por hecho tales desastres y buscan métodos para sobrevivir a los mismos. Adam Dearden, un especialista en "previsión estratégica", tras sufrir una crisis nerviosa, es internado en Normal. Llega bajo los efectos de unas sustancias que le mantienen en un estado de total desconcierto. Incluso es incapaz de moverse y relacionarse normalmente con el personal y el resto de pacientes. La misteriosa desaparición de un interno, cuya cama ha quedado llena de insectos, le inquieta y le empuja a averiguar qué ha pasado.

Un relato delirante, un provocativo techno-thriller que sin duda, y por mucho que se apoye en las ideas de unos personajes que pasan por dementes, hará al lector plantearse unas cuantas inquietantes preguntas sobre nuestra vida cotidiana.
