About the Book
By 2011 the Internet has become the world's central nervous system. If terrorists are going to subvert the new world order, this is where they will strike. Net Force is the new organisation to deter them - a team of highly trained operatives whose homeground is the Virtual Reality world of the Net, with the Net Force Strike Teams at the ready to take the battle into the realworld. When a top-secret cargo train carrying materials for Pakistan's nuclear weapons programme is destroyed by mercenaries, it's the first of a series of incidents in which supposedly bullet-proof encrypted information is stolen and deciphered. Someone, it seems, has got hold of a functioning quantum computer - a computer so powerful it has the potential to develop a consciousness. If Net Force don't track the perpetrator down, his demented scheme could re-draw the map of the world forever...
