Seventeen year old Marcus is somewhat of an expert hacker. At least he's good enough to easily hack his high schools system. Unfortunately, while skipping school, Marcus and his friends are caught in the middle of a terrorist attack in San Francisco. Due to his unlucky placement near the incident, he and his friends are taken by the Department of Homeland Security and interrogated. Once he gets back, he find the city under deep surveillance. He grows to hate Homeland Security - and everything that they are doing to his beloved city. He makes a drastic decision of his city, and for what he believes is right; Marcus decides to take on the DHS.
I liked this book a lot. I didn't understand all the hacker/computer stuff, but I got the just of it. Although somewhat unrealistic, I liked the plot and characters of this book. It was exciting, although it didn't rely on violence to do so. I would recommend this book to anyone our age and older - especially if they have an interest in terrorism, national security, and hacking.
