"Jance reminds us that there are some truly twisted people out there. The villain in this book uses his pain and anger as weapons to hurt other people in similar situations. The intricate weaving of high tech and hacking into this plot really keeps the reader interested. When an AI (artificial intelligence) knows everything about how to behave from reading specific books, the reader is heartened to know that tech doesn't trump reading all the time.
