After
being a key figure in the exposing of government corruption, Max Stein
has spent a quiet semester abroad in Paris, studying, staying off the
Internet, and looking for his long-lost mother.
But just as he is about to fly back to the United States for the
holidays, trouble manages to find him once again.
Max
receives a call from Penny, his on-again-off-again girlfriend who is
part of the expert hacking duo DoubleThink. She wants him to meet with
Ada Kiesler, a high-profile whistleblower hiding
out at a foreign embassy in Berlin. Max has no interest in getting
drawn into another corporate conspiracy. But when airport security
suddenly detains him on suspicion of cyber-terrorism, he has little
choice but to get involved. Soon Max and Penny are tangling
with a new group of shadowy figures who are determined to control how
the world shares its information. And some figures from Max’s past
resurface, including his own mother, whose life has mirrored his own in
more ways than he’d realized.
In
this action-packed follow up to The Silence of Six, Max and his hacker
friends must fight to expose a corrupt corporation that has been
systematically taking control of the Internet.
