Description
The Cloud is an exhilarating, cutting-edge thriller from Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times technology and science reporter Matt Richtel. When the next generation of technology seeps into the brains of the next generation of people, former medical student turned journalist Nat Idle must investigate and stop the invasion. In the tradition of Lisa Gardner, Steve Berry, and Joseph Finder, Richtel has delivered a whip-smart page-turner that melds cutting-edge science with a technological mystery and a shocking finale. A deftly told tale, the scariest part of The Cloud is how close to reality it could be. The Cloud, the second in the Nat Idle series, includes a bonus short story, "Floodgate."

Be prepared to stay up very late; this book is worth it!" -- Lisa Gardner THE CLOUD is a non-stop, paranoid thriller whose terrors are all too believable. Richtel spins today's cutting-edge technology into a story that will keep you guessing to the last page--and render you speechless when its final secret is revealed. -- Joseph FinderMore details
