Worryingly realistic
This story is so close to reality it's frightening. Brilliant! Well narrated and flows smoothly. It's a completely believable story of how easily we can/are being drawn into living too much of our lives online, or allowing ourselves to become digitally managed. The public chase through Manhattan was totally believable and an abject exercise in showing how easily a victim can become demonised by huge public audiences. I'm a cynic when it comes to conspiracy theories but this is an all too familiar scenario and this book should be required reading in schools as a method of vigilance against allowing such situations to become probable instead of just possible.
