A popular columnist for PC Monthly magazine falls to his death from the Golden Gate Bridge. Determined to find out why, Randall McLagan follows a trail of computer crime, stock market intrigue, and violent murder--a trail that eventually brings him face to face with the sinister force behind The Family.

This is the kind of book that you'd better not have anything else important to do while you're reading it, because you won't be able to put it down. (online reviewer)
