Book excerpt: "This electrifying debut thriller delivers a gripping tale of Big Brother gone mad amid a world in peril. Brimming with high-powered suspense, here is the shockingly believable story of three masterminds locked on a breathtaking collision course that may determine the very fate of the United States." "Twenty-two-year-old Jeannie Reese is a computer wunderkind - and the top architect of next-generation security for the government. Her latest brainchild, IRIN, is the most powerful surveillance technology ever developed. On the day of a horrific act of terrorism strikes the U.S., Jeannie's creation is put to work." "Known only as Phr33k, John Fagan is a legendary, reclusive computer hacker. For years he has remained unidentified despite his infamy as the author of a slew of electronic crimes - and his now eerily prophetic, scenarios of warfare against America. But Phr33k is being held by a vast terrorist network that plans to use his genius to deliver a final, fatal blow: a nationwide wave of unparalleled destruction. In his greatest challenge yet, Fagan must find a way to provide Jeannie Reese with one impossible shot to short-circuit the unstoppable scheme he so masterfully - and so unwillingly - helped to create."
