Kokomo

A single act of cyber-terrorism. A computer virus - incredibly advanced and coded in a language no one understands - is released onto the internet, encrypting every piece of information held on every system.

All information is being held hostage.

Alice Price is sent in to negotiate the safe return of the information before the world descends into chaos. But who are the terrorists and why have they asked for Price?

In Kokomo, a cyber terrorist group is holding the world hostage, and ask to speak to Alice Price, hostage negotiator with a mind outside the regular rule book.
There are some fun twists and turns in this one which will keep you guessing, but ultimately it's more a presentation of philosophical ideas than a drama, as the bulk of the story is Alice and the terrorist group talking about their reasons for doing what they're doing.
Still a good listen though, even on re-listen.
