About this ebook

In this thriller from the world's #1 bestselling author, genius programmer Angela Hoot has always been at the top of her class, but now she's at the bottom of the FBI food chain—until her first case threatens everyone around her.​
 
Angela's graduate school days at MIT come to an abrupt end when she uses her hacking skills on another student's computer. Yet her mentor, Eve Abajian, arranges a new beginning for her—as an intern in FBI's Boston field office.
 
Her new supervisor, Assistant Special Agent in Charge William Keats, one of only two agents in the Northeast to make his rank before the age of thirty, sees in Angela a fellow prodigy. But Angela's skills come with a natural curiosity, which is also a dangerous liability.
 
With little training, Angela is quickly plunged into a tough case: tracking murderous brothers who go by the Poet and the Engineer. When Keats tells her to "watch and listen," Angela's mind kicks into overdrive.
 
The obsessive thinking that earned her As on campus can prove fatal in the field.

Just about ANYTHING this man puts a pen to is amazing to read! Not only does he make the story believable but it seems so real that it makes a person wonder if he makes these story's up or are they based on real cases, just names and some places are changed to protect the privacy of the individuals who were involved!!!! I haven't found a book yet by this author that I could put down until I was at the last chapter!!!! Love his work!!đŸ„°âœŒđŸŒđŸ„łđŸ˜Ž
