This was a well paced and interesting story. It truly makes you ponder human motivation as influenced by social media but also the potential danger of AI and implicitly trusting technology without ethical considerations

4.25 - Autonomous vehicles being hacked and 8 passengers speeding towards the same location? Add in some very timely themes of AI and ethics and what you have is a thrilling, thought-provoking novel by John Marrs. Great twists and new details being revealed throughout the tense story make this a very quick and engrossing read.
