Thriller Techno
An everyman is targeted for death by a serial killer in this
high-concept, searing novel that looks at the way that we
now live our lives. Solitary photojournalist John Wallace struggles to
consciousness to find he has been bound and blindfolded by a
masked man who is preparing to hang him in his own living
room. Forced onto a chair with a noose around his neck,
Wallace briefly reconsiders his mostly lonely life before
the chair is kicked out beneath him and his world fades to
black. Then he gets lucky and manages to escape his apartment, just
ahead of his assailant. Bloody, barefoot, and with at least
one broken rib, he has no choice but to run for his life.
With no idea who would want to kill him, he makes it to the
hospital and files a police report, but it soon becomes
clear that as far as the authorities are concerned the only
threat to Wallace's life is himself, and he is placed under
suicide watch. When his would-be killer strikes again, Wallace realizes he
will have to figure out who is hunting him and stop him on
his own. The pendulum of fate swung briefly in his favor,
but it's only a matter of time before its momentum carries
it to the other side . . .
