Tangled Fortunes

North East England, 2046. Daniel, a fearless scavenger, scours an old landfill for hidden treasures while his cousin Michelle hustles to make ends meet through coding and hacking.

But when a nuclear explosion rocks the world, chaos ensues and the SimCavalier, Cameron Silvera, springs into action. Daniel, thanks to Michelle's innovative hacking skills, lands a job at the local nuclear power station and together they work with the Argentum Associates team to uncover a sinister plot. Suspicious software is discovered at multiple nuclear sites and a dead body floating out to sea confirms their worst fears - a familiar cybercrime syndicate is behind it all.

Cameron is desperate to protect her family and joins forces with a group of undercover hackers to fight against a rogue militia and a global cybercriminal network. Linking the two is Michelle, working in the half-light of grey hat hacking. When Ross slips up and reveals his old, cast-off hacker identity from his criminal days, she makes the connection. Exposing him could bring the whole delicate operation crashing down.

With time running out and the terrorists counting down to their next attack, the pressure is on. While the international coalition picks off the cybercriminals one by one, Cameron discovers that there’s a traitor in the camp, someone she trusted all along. It's a race against time to defuse an explosive finale. The stakes are high, but who will come out on top in this thrilling battle of wits and courage?

"Stepping up a gear to reveal a worldwide network of strong characters on both sides"

”A nice blend of sci-fi and thriller genres. Highly recommended reading.”

The tangled web spread across the globe is believable because the villains behind it are believable, fallible and very human.”
