Intrepid hacker Kari Tahe makes a break from prison using
her special skills. Alas, something goes terribly wrong. On the verge of
capture, she’s rescued and delivered to a secret hacker hideaway run by a guy
named Oedipus. The plush retreat is nothing short of fabulous, and like-minded
people are always inviting Kari to join their hacking games.
But she misses her friends David and Audrey. She wishes the
war would end so life would get back to normal. While Kari admires the Eden-like
sanctuary and the talent around her, she’s getting mixed signals from people,
especially Oedipus. She’s idolized his feats for years, so her hero worship of
him blinds her to his nature.
As the war escalates, a fellow hacker warns her to trust no
one. Already on edge, Kari decides to stop taking things on face value, and
trouble like she’s never seen before rains down on her. Can she survive in this
strange new world?
Another winning Kindle Scout book. I loved Freelancer, the
first book of this dystopian series, and The Unseen met my high expectations
and more. Author Jake Lingwall wove a powerful tale of intrigue and high tech
wizardry that had me reading at darn near warp speeds. Nicely done!
