A coon hunter stumbles onto a trailer full of brightly lit computer terminals . . . and one electrocuted corpse. A cop stops a car with the drug-wired daughter of the president of DataForm--a transplanted Silicon Valley security firm.
There is something rotten in Dubois, Arkansas.
An estranged husband-and-wife detective team temporarily rejoin forces, following a bizarre trail to big bucks and murder . . . as schemes, scams and a seemingly superhuman computer turn a sleepy southern town into a high-tech hotbed.
"The first masterful novel about computers . . . holds the same place as The Godfather, about the underworld, and Dog Soldiers, about the Vietnam era."
- San Francisco Chronicle
". . . a fast-paced, high-tech thriller . . .â
