Hunting For Sparrows by Beatrice Gerard
Synopsis
When attempted breaches of the network firewalls at the datacenter of Wise Woman, Inc. turn the midnight calm into alarm, computer specialist Lauren is confronted with an all too urgent need to decipher the source of these cyber-attacks. Are they the work of a band of hackers or is it some sort of implanted ghost in the machine? Hard on the heels of the untimely death of Wise Woman’s founder, Claire Wise, and with a frantic sell-off of the company’s stock set to recommence at the market’s opening bell, the very survival of this progressive, socially responsible corporation hangs perilously in the balance.

“Richard takes another step backwards, trying to put some distance between ***’s armed hand and his neck. *** sees his worried expression and laughs. She extends her left foot and raises the machete over her head assuming the Daijodan no Kamae stance – the blade over her head, her weight on the rear foot read to jump with a mortal blow. “Don’t be frightened, Richard. This tool is just like you. It lost its edge long ago.”
