Mind Games

After hacking into police databases to research an old unsolved murder, twenty-something computer whiz Sky Lightman disappears. His father, Cliff, thinks that Sky s boss, multibillionaire Avery Kord, was involved in the murder and has kidnapped Sky with plans to kill him. First, though, Kord needs Sky to finish designing a top secret computer program that can derail a Congressional investigation of his company and enable him to monopolize the programming markets for years to come. Desperate to find Sky before it is too late­having already suffered the death of his wife and the constant guilt of believing he could have prevented it­Cliff follows a trail that leads through New York, the Pacific Northwest, and the Gulf Coast of Florida. But other programming developers are being killed and time is running out. Ensnared in a tangled high-tech web he can barely understand, Cliff Lightman faces the test of his life...and the life of his son.
