Circles is the most popular social network in the world: vast, ubiquitous, and constantly evolving. Days before expanding into China, Circles suffers a devastating cyberattack--and a key executive is brutally murdered. As he fights to save the company he helped build, top engineer Sergio Mansour uncovers evidence of a massive conspiracy that turns the power of Circles against its users. But as Sergio investigates, someone is watching his every move--someone ruthless enough to brand him a criminal and set a vicious hit man on his trail. Desperate to clear his name, Sergio turns to Malina Olson, a beautiful and headstrong doctor who has an agenda of her own. Now, he and Malina must survive long enough to expose the truth in a world without hiding places, where a single keystroke can shift the global balance of power.
This sort of novel makes Kindle Unlimited really worth it. A powerful, compelling social networking story, and even if it's treading old ground by now, it does it well. The action felt well tuned, the computer bits fitted in neatly and the stuff behind the action is well and truly thought-provoking. Makes me want to be a little more careful who I choose to accept on my networks!
