<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A father's desperate fight to find his daughter, set against the background of the apocalypse brought about by North Korea's combined nuclear and cyber-attacks on the United States. He leaves safety and travels hundreds of miles of dangerous highways to confront a pimp and the vicious gang who have taken his 14-year-old girl.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>This is book one of the Cyber War series. It is set in Arizona during the two months leading up to North Korea's cyber-attack on the United States and the few days immediately following. The protagonist, Murf, is faced with two problems simultaneously: his duty to prepare his community for the cyber-attack he believes is imminent and his concern for his estranged 14-year-old daughter. He has no idea that both his ex-wife and his daughter are the victims of a vicious drug dealer and pimp. This is a fast-paced thriller dealing with a very real apocalyptic fear and with one of our society's open secrets: how a young woman can be abused to the point of being enslaved while everyone who should protect her looks the other way.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Cyber War, Ed McDonald's new novel, is about <em>au courant </em>as a piece of fiction can be. Because of the author's obvious experience with law enforcement and technical knowledge relating to electronic surveillance and cyber warfare, the narrative rings true and clear. Starting off with a stomach-churning news flash that manages to get ballistic missiles, west coast devastation and power grid melt down all in a few paragraphs, the plot slows enough to introduce a cast of characters ranging from heroic to bottom-line creepy. Finally, there's a frighteningly up-to-date chapter involving an American destroyer and what's described as an oceanic anonymous colossus. Four succinct sentences pretty much sum up every American statesman's worst nightmare: <br /> "Yeltsin was the president of a superpower, and he was a drunk which, by the way, is saying a lot for a Russian. But for every night he went to bed drunk, he woke up the next morning sober. But Kim Jong Un is crazy. For every night when he goes to bed crazy, he wakes up the next morning still crazy."<br /> Cyber War combines the technical expertise of Tom Clancy with the characterization and fast-paced stories of Ken Follett. Turn off your phone, sink into a comfortable chair, turn to page one and kiss the rest of the day good-bye. Once you start reading it, this book will not let you go.<br /> --Burgess Needle: Author of Sit and Cry, a Peace Corps memoir, and Every Crow in the Blue Sky, a collection of poems based on his experiences in Thailand.<br /> </p><br>
