THE EXPLOSIVE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLING THRILLER...

When Jack Bernstein’s prodigal daughter Lara is killed as a result of the bombing of Flight 320, the chess grandmaster is told that it was simply a terrorist act and that none of the passengers had been specifically targeted. It is a lie.

Having been summoned via a strangely coded message to a meeting with a man referring to himself only as ‘Simon’, Jack is made aware that his daughter had been leaving a lot more than her new life behind. She had also been leaving a secret… one that had been building for centuries and one which a global group of corporations will stop at nothing to protect.

It soon becomes apparent that Lara Bernstein’s life and death had been planned in detail. She was chosen to become part of an ever-expanding group and her selection was a direct result of her father’s company’s near-perfection of the thing they need - true artificial intelligence - computer systems capable of cracking the most complex codal system known to man.

Slowly, Jack Bernstein is being drawn into a global game of chess, one in which he has been an unwitting pawn for over a decade. To keep him in the game they have already killed his wife and now his daughter.

When the game is over, they will kill a whole lot more unless Jack can find the one thing he is reluctant to believe exists…
