For Will Parker, it&;s about personal redemption after a disastrous mistake

In 2011, Will Parker, the young prodigy CEO of a big tech company makes a coding mistake that costs a college student her life. To assuage his guilt, Will pursues a career in the FBI Cyber Division.

Now, Special Agent Will Parker is called to investigate a murder scene at a Comic Con event in the Midwest, where the victim has ties to a radioactive quantum computer that Will was working on before he left his gig as CEO.

Working with smart local homicide detective Dana Lopez and FBI stuffed-shirt Thomas Decker, Will discovers the victim was holding an auction for the computer on the Dark Web&;and the bidding is still live.

With bidders including a legendary Chinese hacker, Russian criminals sent by the Kremlin, and a corporate executive desperate to escape a scandal, Will once again finds a life in his hands when the victim&;s daughter is taken hostage. A trail of blood and high-tech breadcrumbs leads Will deeper into mystery, danger, and a race against time to keep unlimited power out of the wrong hands.

Perfect for fans of Harlan Coben&;s Missing You and James Patterson&;s Invisible

Industry Reviews

"Will Parker, a genius with considerable baggage and even more wealth, works for the FBI. There's a lot of excitement in this debut novel, and you'll be running along with Will the whole way." -- Charlaine Harris, New York Times best-selling author
"A tech thriller with brains and heart. Memorable characters and sharply written action scenes make this excellent debut a standout." -- Kelley Armstrong, New York Times best-selling author
"Fast, fun, factual. Murray's pacing propels the reader through Broken Genius at warp speed. His insider knowledge of Silicon Valley provides a compelling verisimilitude -- you know you're in the hands of a master. Add in Comic Con as a backdrop and a parry or two of sword play and you have a strikingly unique page-turner. Also, you'll never look at unicorns the same way." -- K J Howe, international best-selling author
"Andrew Murray swings for the fences and hits a home run with his debut Broken Genius . Crisply plotted and highly entertaining, Murray delivers with believable characters and compelling dialogue that keep the story moving at a galloping pace." -- Simon Gervais, international best-selling author
"Computer geeks will look forward to Will's further adventures." -- Publishers Weekly
"This is a solid thriller with a plausible story and a flawed but determined hero. A good series launcher." -- Booklist
"This classic good-versus-evil high-tech novel will intrigue computer geeks and a squad of Comic-Con fans, along with anyone who enjoys a well-crafted thriller." -- Bookreporter
