Publisher's summary

A dead girl, an ex-government agent, and a trail of secrets.

Jacob Knox is in up to his head. The Austin police want him for a murder he didn't commit. And if that wasn't bad enough, the murdered girl is an online celebrity.

Weaving his way in and out of the police's dragnet, Knox must find a way to catch the real killer. But it won't be easy.

These are highly sophisticated cybercriminals who know how to cover their tracks. Good thing Knox is a skilled operative himself.

Following Knox's tail is Detective Harris, an old hand from the APD who is feeling the world slipping away from him. Within the myriad twists and turns of criminals hiding in the cracks of crypto culture, he must rely on good old intuition if he wants to catch the killer.

But why did the girl have to die? And is there something much bigger behind all of this?

This cyberthriller brings the art of murder into a new era where crime, code, money, and blood all run down the same gutter.

Captivating Suspense

This cyber-thriller quickly draws the listener into the dark, insidious world of online crime. Lethal Transaction is a fast-paced story of intrigue as arcane technology merges with the classic suspense of a crime drama.

For fans of character-driven plots and unexpected twists, Lethal Transaction doesn’t disappoint. Listeners are in for a pulse-pounding journey through the shadowy corridors of cybercrime, while fugitive Jacob Knox evades police pursuing him for a murder he didn’t commit. I was both disturbed and captivated... and couldn’t wait to get back to the story each time I had to press pause.

Unique plot, fast paced thriller

I love a good, unique crime thriller. The story races and kept me listening long after I wanted to hit pause. I loved a few of the characters, and I won’t say which one I connected with and why, because I’m afraid of giving away too much of the story line. With any good, or even entertaining, worth of crime fiction, it’s always important to find a new idea, something that doesn’t fell Ike a re-tread of storyline. With this book developed around cybercrime, it’s both contemporaneous and interesting. Get this audiobook for great entertainment.
