Mike is a reporter who knows a lot of secrets. Jack is a drug lord who wants those secrets buried. David and Todd are Mike's cyber geek friends who are dot-com rich and seriously dangerous. Jack never really had a chance.
An Orwellian thriller about a band of mild mannered computer geeks who are lords of an unseen electronic empire.
I honestly didn't know what to expect from this book, as the cover wasn't a true reflection of the story that lay within but within 1 page I was hooked.
This was a really interesting story as it wasn't like anything I had read before. I came to really care for the main characters as they plot to fight and bring down the key drug lord in St Louis. The fact they were nearly always one step ahead was great as we got to learn about every form of surveillance known to man and maybe more besides! I didn't understand all the tech talk all the time but what I didn't understand was explained really well for the less savvy among us like Mike (and myself!)
I really found myself wanting to live in one of the apartments above the club as it was described so well and it was incredibly appealing with the huge technologically advanced entertainment system and picture window overlooking Omaha.
I loved the incredible, painstaking attention to detail that Kevin O'Kane went into to bring us this compelling book and the natural, easy banter between the main players was entertaining. All the twists and turns really made me want to keep reading all day!
I would recommend this book to anyone,full marks from me.
This book was a lot of fun, with plenty of action, plenty of technology, loads of characters, it was worth reading. It was a freebie at Sony ebook store.
