The Hacker: A Satire

THE HACKER


In a style reminiscent of Christopher Buckley, McArthur skewers a variety of cultural sacred cows in this modern thriller and satire about corrupt government officials, enemies lists and computer hacking, where fiction is often closer to reality than one would think. In this fast paced plot that stretches from the shores of the Potomac to the Beaches of Rio, our whistleblower hero enters a true wilderness of mirrors as he delves deeper and deeper into the truth and learns that not all is as it seems. With Edward Snowden’s NSA revelations, Americans are left to wonder how much they don’t know and who they can trust. This engrossing story attempts to answer the questions which are ripped from today’s headlines.
