If you've ever wondered what it might be like to take a peek at the future, this story will be right up your alley. The fast-paced plot kept me drawing me back in, at times unnerving me with a creepy sense of someone looking over my shoulder. The tension created by Alex's missing father, a cold businesswoman looking for something (or someone) to dominate, and another frightening kidnapping keeps the reader engrossed in the story until the end. A well-crafted book with believable moments of future/past communication. A rewarding read for young tech fans.
