Nathan Thomas Mace, founder and CEO of Mace Technologies, is one of the wealthiest men on the planet. He commands the kind of wealth and power that most people can't even imagine. His influence even rivals some major politicians. And now, he is about to start on his Bastion project. Rather than just go after a single device, Nathan wants to monopolize the entire home. That's right. He's going to develop a new line of smart houses. With a fully integrated AI, nearly impregnable walls, and smart features for everything from the appliances to the locks and cameras, this is the future of housing...
To prove the viability of his new system, Nathan has moved into the prototype home. It's a beautiful, if somewhat modest, property. The investors and potential buyers are going to love that.
It all looks so refined, polished, and perfect—but after one key press conference, everything is about to change. Nathan’s life will never be the same…
Lots of billionaires think they’re unstoppable; these are oligarchs who can have whatever they want, which warps their personalities and perceptions. That's Nathan doesn't see the vulnerability. Even as other people tried to point out the possible flaws, Nathan insisted on moving ahead because he thought he was invulnerable.
Soon enough, he's going to be locked in his house. That's right. The AI won't obey him. But it will obey someone else…Who? Nathan doesn't know, but he has to figure it out. His captor is a hacker, someone who could seize control over every aspect of his house. That individual now has complete control over Nathan’s life too. After all, his captor can control more than just the cameras, microphones, appliances, locks, or even the air supply. Soon enough, the packages start to arrive.
A shock collar. A chastity belt.
Unless Nathan wants to be punished, he will wear these devices. He will slide the collar around his neck and feel the electrodes at the base of his throat. He will slip the chastity belt around his waist, and he will engage those smart locks. Soon, his captor will have control over more than just the house; this hacker will be able to own Nathan just as easily. Now, it's time for his training to begin…
The CEO of Mace Technologies has made a lot of enemies. As he works to figure out who is doing this, he searches for a way out. There must be something he can do, some vulnerability he can exploit. If he's not careful, he might start to feel his independence and freedom slip away. More and more, this hacker might be able to convince him that he really is a slave who belongs on his knees in front of a powerful woman, someone who will take command because men are meant to serve.
