About this listen

TWO HOURS TO VANISH.

ONE CHANCE TO ESCAPE.

ZERO ALTERNATIVES.

Ten Americans have been carefully selected to Beta test a ground-breaking piece of spyware. FUSION can track anyone on earth. But does it work?

For one contestant, an unassuming Boston librarian named Kaitlyn Day, the stakes are far higher than money, and her reasons for entering the test more personal than anyone imagines. When the timer hits zero, there will only be one winner…

From four-time Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Anthony McCarten comes a breakneck, wickedly entertaining thriller for our times, a twisty, action-packed novel reminiscent of the best Michael Crichton technothrillers.

Extraordinary

I teach a graduate course in intelligence and get my students to read a spy fiction novel each semester. This will be at the top of the list this semester!

So many familiar aspects to the story and dialog. Great narration as well!

Entertaining and Reflective

Engaging from start to finish. The story topic is pertinent right now and had me reflecting on my current understanding and use of technology as they relate to privacy. I felt the ending was a bit quick, and left me with a couple of questions, but it sounds like there will be a other book to follow. Fingers crossed!

It plays out much like a TV series

Going Zero plays out much like a streaming miniseries. A could nice twists and turns without too much distraction (often authors feel the need to ramble needless details like their a high-school student trying to Leben their essay).

That's So Well Done!

You don't have to have a technical background to love this book. This is very well written and very suspenseful. I approached it as fiction and it is, but it does skirt reality as shown in reported past events. The story drew me in and I couldn't stop listening. Having a technical background and IT training for me the story was intersting and suspenseful without being too far fetched. Some of the technical details like the handling of vast amounts of files/data are necessarily fictionalized, but that didn't detract from the story. I loved it!
