LOVE. LOVE. LOVE. this series!

In The Quantum Breach we watched Tanner get kidnapped and forced to hack into the newly developed quantum computer.

Now he is fully sanctioned to use the quantum computer to thwart cyber attacks.

This book opens up with a scene of a woman taking down the plane that Tanner was suppose to be on.

His partner was on that plane...

Why would someone want to take out these two computer specialists?

Because they are THE VERY BEST at what they do!

Using all of his computer skills Tanner uncovers "an ingenious Chinese computer virus" that is soon to be put into play "destroying the financial data of everyone in America."

He has mere days to stop the attack.

But someone is determined to stop him before he puts all the pieces together.

Excerpt
"The FBI Suburban was already waiting for Tanner in the parking lot. He ran up to it just as the rear passenger door opened from the inside. Tanner jumped in and closed the door before realizing the woman sitting next to him wasn’t Agent Heywood. It was Reina, dressed in a blonde wig and wearing Sara’s clothes. 

It took Tanner a moment to realize that he was [once again] being kidnapped."

FUN TWISTS AND TURNS IN THE PLOT!
A FANTASTIC THRILLER!

Makes you really think about what someone could really do with a computer program!


About the Author
Few people understand the terrifying, yet realistic threat of computer hacking like Denver Acey. Denver has spent his entire professional career in the information technology industry where he has witnessed and even thwarted actual cybercrime. From his top-secret job working for the US government to securing computer networks at Fortune 500 companies, Denver is personally familiar with hackers and their unscrupulous activities.

But over the years, Denver has become increasingly frustrated with Hollywood’s inaccurate portrayal of cybercrime. Hackers are more intelligent and more sophisticated than simple teenagers, who guzzle down Mountain Dew while playing video games. Cybercrime is a billion-dollar business that encompasses organized crime and foreign governments. For these elite hackers, the fruits of success are iconic trademarks, innovative patents, and government secrets.

Because of his unique background, Denver decided to write a book to dispel hacking myths while highlighting the tenacity of cybercriminals. Utilizing actual computer hacking concepts and scenarios that he has experienced firsthand, Denver illustrates — in a simple way for even the non-techie to understand — how vulnerable we all are to cybercrime.

A PHENOMENAL spy/espionage book!
THIS ONE REALLY DELIVERS!
I COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!

Tanner Zane and his parents have been kidnapped.

Why?

Because Tanner has a secret past of computer hacking...and they want him to hack into a "top-security government facility" to get the plans for the quantum computer.

"A computer powerful enough to crack the digital safeguards of the Internet."

Keeping Tanner's parents as collateral forces him to go against everything he has promised to NEVER DO AGAIN!

"When Tanner learns that cyber-terrorists will use the quantum computer to commit massive identify theft and corporate espionage around the world" he starts an intellectual game of wits with his captors.

TWIST and TURNS will lead you on a fantastic chase of "cat-and-mouse" using the cyber-world as the background.

SO. SO. SO. GOOD!
A MUST READ!

Thought-provoking questions at the end...MAKE YOU REALLY THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU, YOURSELF, ARE PUTTING OUT THERE ON THE COMPUTER!
