Publisher Description

TWO HOURS TO VANISH.

ONE CHANCE TO ESCAPE.

ZERO ALTERNATIVES.

Ten Americans have been carefully selected to Beta test a ground-breaking piece of spyware. FUSION can track anyone on earth. But does it work?

For one contestant, an unassuming Boston librarian named Kaitlyn Day, the stakes are far higher than money, and her reasons for entering the test more personal than anyone imagines.  When the timer hits zero, there will only be one winner…

From four-time Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Anthony McCarten comes a breakneck, wickedly entertaining thriller for our times, a twisty, action-packed novel reminiscent of the best Michael Crichton technothrillers.

Excellent!

This book read like a movie!! I loved it!!

An almost perfect thriller

At turns, it was an very engaging thriller, a musing about the ethics of privacy in the digital age, and a humorous satire of big tech and the cultural changes it has wrought. The only gripe I have is that the plot, which built to a near crescendo, faded a bit at the end. The ending reminded me of those of the cynical movies of the 70’s. The ending also leaves room for a sequel. I greatly enjoyed reading it.

From wow to no way

The book started off great. As long as it stayed a story about an ingenious person outwitting big tech it rocked. Then (spoiler alert) it veered into a story about whistle blowing and the evil CIA/Big Tech bad guys. I lost patience when a couple of big tech hackers downloaded the entire file storage records of the CIA, TSA, and FBI over the internet in a matter of a few minutes. Even to backup my photo archives (5tb) to a backup hard drive over a wired connection takes hours. Then they later erase it with the press of a key. No. To truly erase info it must be overwritten. More hours. The book went from wow to no way pretty quickly.
