Privacy Doesn't Exist Anymore - The Expert On Everything - A Novel by Edward David Gil

Described as “Catch-22” meets “Three Days of the Condor,” this techno-thriller with an attitude focuses on realistic technological details and takes the reader on a journey into an uncomfortable future that could easily become a reality.

OVERVIEW

Young Charlie Sanders is offered a six-figure job after only thirty seconds into an interview at Vector Systems, is mistakenly handed the company’s only prototype of a technology that can definitively erase any and all privacy in our society (code-named “Wallace”, It fits like a snug hearing aid and can maintain a conversation), is pursued like prey by more than a few interested parties – including a Governor with presidential ambitions and quite a few U.S. Senators – and begins receiving death-threats from the technology itself, which now has its own ideas.
