In this instant New York Times
bestseller and high-stakes thriller Ali Reynolds spans continents to
solve a cold case murder and to figure out who wants a young juvenile
offender dead.
EVEN GHOSTS CAN’T HIDE FOREVER.
Lance Tucker, an incarcerated
juvenile offender doing time for expertly hacking into the San Leandro
School District’s computer system, is set on fire and severely burned
one night while hanging Christmas decorations in a lockup rec room. The
police say that he did it to himself, but B. Simpson, Ali Reynolds’s
fiancé and the man who helped put Lance in jail, feels obligated to get
to the bottom of what really happened.
Lance is famous in the hacker
world for developing GHOST, computer software that allows users to surf
any part of the web completely undetected. And that kind of digital
camouflage is seductive to criminal minds who will stop at nothing to
get their hands on this revolutionary—and dangerous—technology.
Meanwhile, in England, Ali
investigates the decades-old murder of Leland Brooks’s father, which
Leland himself was once suspected of committing. With Ali otherwise
occupied and Lance receiving cryptic threats in the hospital, B. turns
to Sister Anselm—a Taser-carrying nun and Ali’s close friend—for help
protecting the boy. With unsolved crimes on both sides of the Atlantic,
Ali, B., and Sister Anselm are united by their search for answers—though
being thousands of miles away may not be far enough to keep Ali from
being drawn into the deadly line of fire.
