Seventeen year old Nyah Parks is desperate... and she's
willing to use her skills as a hacker in order to help her
mom. She needs $250,000 to get her mom into a privately
funded program to help with her brain damage. Hacking
BlakBox in hopes they will then hire her seems like the
answer to Nyah's financial problem. Unfortunately,
everything goes wrong and now Nyah is in hiding. An old
friend offers her hope, even as he introduces her to the
strange new concept of hacking the human brain. Will Nyah
and Austin learn the secret of "deditio" (surrender)?
HACKER is the third book in The Outlaw Chronicles
but
can easily be read as a standalone. Ted Dekker takes
readers
into new territory as we delve deep into the workings of
the
human brain. HACKER is compelling, even as some of the
choices Nyah makes horrify me. Her desperation leads her
into exploring a world that I can't even begin to fathom.
Ted Dekker once again pushes the boundaries and crafts a
tale that is wildly imaginative but strangely believable.
HACKER is suspenseful and a tad bit creepy at times.
Readers who like their stories with a technological twist
will thoroughly appreciate Ted Dekker's HACKER.
My name is Nyah and I'm a hacker. I know things most people
would never believe. Things that shouldn't exist, but do.
Seventeen year old Nyah Parks is a genius hacker who makes a
living by cracking the firewalls of the world's largest
corporations. But when the biggest job of her life goes
wrong she's plunged into a desperate situation with only one
way out: one last hack that will either save her or kill
her.
So begins Hacker, a modern day parable that examines the
staggering world around us, the seen and unseen, and reminds
us that there's far more to who we are than meets the eye.
