Now, Grant Kingsley, a horse trainer on a California ranch, and Andi Lawrence, a New York City psychologist, are entering cyberspace's most deadly abyss. Without knowing it, one of them has been chosen by the architect of a bizarre secret project...for a fate worse than death.As Grant and Andi arrange far their first face-to-face meeting, they are unaware that their e-mail has been intercepted and doctored by a third party. Sensing that the woman he meets at the airport is not Andi but an impostor, Grant begins a desperate search to find her.
