Beth Callahan's first real job at DataCorp Technologies should have been a dream come true. Fresh from Iowa with a community college degree and determination, she's finally made it to the glass towers of Boston.
But when Beth notices strange patterns in the company's financial databases-micro-transactions that appear and disappear in exactly 4.7 seconds-she stumbles onto something that was never meant to be found. Small amounts of money, vanishing from thousands of customer accounts. Amounts so tiny nobody would notice. Amounts that add up to millions.
Senior manager Valerie Hendricks built her empire one stolen dollar at a time, designing the perfect theft mechanism into the system she was paid to create. For fifteen years, she's been untouchable. Respected. Successful.
Until Beth started asking questions nobody wanted answered.
Now Beth has to decide: stay quiet and keep the career she worked so hard to achieve, or expose a crime that powerful people are willing to protect at any cost. But Valerie Hendricks didn't stay hidden for fifteen years by letting threats go unchallenged. And she's already planning how to destroy the one person brave enough-or foolish enough-to stand in her way.
In this gripping financial thriller, a pattern-obsessed programmer faces off against a brilliant thief in a game where the stakes are millions of dollars, and the price of truth might be everything Beth has worked for.
Some patterns are meant to stay hidden. Beth Callahan is about to discover why.
