Описание:

"Think Thomas Harris' Will Graham and Clarice Starling rolled into one and pitched on the knife's edge of a scenario that makes Jurassic Park look like a carnival ride." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

On an isolated island in the middle of the Pacific, a team of scientists is employed by a charismatic billionaire hoping to change the world through cutting-edge research.

In a small cabin on a remote lake in the middle of the Adirondacks, FBI futurist Hannah Stander confronts a barely recognizable human body--one skinned alive by thousands of genetically engineered ants.

Hannah's investigation ultimately leads her to Kohole Atoll. Though the team there vehemently denies any connection to the body, the more Hannah studies the group, the more she suspects their work has sinister applications. And the more it looks like no one is getting off the island alive.

"Fans of Michael Crichton will feel right at home." --Publishers Weekly

Michael Crichton meets Elon Musk in this gripping sci-fi tech thriller, set in the eye-opening, paranoid world of the electrifying Zeroes.

Hannah Stander is a consultant for the FBI a futurist who helps the Agency with cases that feature demonstrations of bleeding-edge technology. It s her job to help them identify unforeseen threats: hackers, AIs, genetic modification, anything that in the wrong hands could harm the homeland.

Hannah is in an airport, waiting to board a flight home to see her family, when she receives a call from Agent Hollis Copper. I ve got a cabin full of over a thousand dead bodies, he tells her. Whether those bodies are all human, he doesn t say.

What Hannah finds is a horrifying murder that points to the impossible someone weaponizing the natural world in a most unnatural way. Discovering who and why will take her on a terrifying chase from the Arizona deserts to the secret island laboratory of a billionaire inventor/philanthropist. Hannah knows there are a million ways the world can end, but she just might be facing one she could never have predicted a new threat both ancient and cutting-edge that could wipe humanity off the earth."

Описание:

An exhilarating thrill-ride through the underbelly of cyber espionage in the vein of David Ignatius's The Director and the television series Leverage, CSI: Cyber, and Person of Interest, which follows five iconoclastic hackers who are coerced into serving the U.S. government.

An Anonymous-style rabble rouser, an Arab spring hactivist, a black-hat hacker, an old-school cipherpunk, and an online troll are each offered a choice: go to prison or help protect the United States, putting their brains and skills to work for the government for one year.

But being a white-hat doesn't always mean you work for the good guys. The would-be cyberspies discover that behind the scenes lurks a sinister NSA program, an artificial intelligence code-named Typhon, that has origins and an evolution both dangerous and disturbing. And if it's not brought down, will soon be uncontrollable.

Can the hackers escape their federal watchers and confront Typhon and its mysterious creator? And what does the government really want them to do? If they decide to turn the tables, will their own secrets be exposed--and their lives erased like lines of bad code?

Combining the scientific-based, propulsive narrative style of Michael Crichton with the eerie atmosphere and conspiracy themes of The X-Files and the imaginative, speculative edge of Neal Stephenson and William Gibson, Zer0es explores our deep-seated fears about government surveillance and hacking in an inventive fast-paced novel sure to earn Chuck Wendig the widespread acclaim he deserves.

Описание:

Five hackers an Anonymous-style rabble-rouser, an Arab-Spring hacktivist, a black-hat hacker, an old-school cipherpunk, and an online troll are detained by the U.S. government, forced to work as white-hat hackers for Uncle Sam in order to avoid federal prison. Calling themselves the Zeroes, they must spend the next year working as an elite cyber-espionage team, at a secret complex known only as the Lodge.

But once the Zeroes begin to work, they uncover secrets that would make even the most dedicated conspiracy theorist s head spin. And soon they re not just trying to serve their time, they re also trying to perform the ultimate hack: burrowing deep into the U.S. government from the inside, and hoping they ll get out alive.

This taut thriller will reinforce your paranoia about big government, big data, and that big, nerdy barista who just seems to know too much. Wall Street Journal

Won t stop blowing your mind until the last page. Daniel H. Wilson, bestselling author of Robopocalypse"
