Bruce Tucker is ex-Navy Seal, ex-Secret Service and Ex-CIA operative. After losing his family to terrorists, which he also blames on the CIA, Tucker takes the job of protector/bodyguard to one of the richest computer gurus alive (think Gates) named Mortimer Fox. When Fox has a heart attack, after a failed attempt on his life, he passes on to Tucker a couple secrets and asks him to please protect his daughter. The same powerful forces that have been trying to kill him will now go after her. The big secret (Firewall) behind Mortimer Fox is a technology, which if discovered by another country, could trigger Armageddon. From launch codes to all the coded messages between intelligence agencies, nothing can be kept secret if the code to Firewall is acquired.
As much spy thriller as techno thriller. A better-rounded thriller you couldn't ask for. From computer technology to the possibilities of a North Korean invasion, all play a pivotal role in this non-stop thriller. At times it gets graphic (Cannibalism) and violent, but in the situations presented it's appropriate and not over done. This novel is very satisfying and should create some new fans for R.J. Pineiro.
Highly Recommended.
