THE BLUE NOWHERE

Phate is a sadistic computer hacker whose world is one big video game. He'll infiltrate your hard drive, your company, and your life. But it doesn't stop there, because killing you is how he wins the game. The FBI's only hope is a man doing time for computer crimes of his own, a man who used to be Phate's best friend and coined the phrase "Blue Nowhere" for cyberspace. Deaver's suspenseful thriller also gives a rare look into the highly interiorized world of hacking. William Dufris has a slow, unemotional delivery, which somehow seems appropriate to the material. While not enthusiastic, his cool, smooth reading allows the story to be central. Listeners will find his characters clear, distinct, and without melodrama.
