Product Description
"I'm into something a little weird here. I don't want to worry you, but if anything unusual should happen, get in touch with Kidd, okay?" When the writer of this letter dies suddenly, allegedly burglarising a software company, his sister turns to Kidd - artist, computer whiz and professional criminal - to find out what really happened. Before long, Kidd and his sometime partner/lover, LuEllen, are up to their necks in trouble...the sort of trouble that leads to flowers on a grave. Computer hackers, scientists and crooked businessmen all play their parts as Kidd gets ever closer to discovering the truth behind his friend's death.

Customer Reviews
Another Kidd and Luellen book
This follows from the Fool's Run and the Empress books. The technology is a little out of date but the story is well worth reading. A good thriller.
Why aren't these books as good as the Prey Series?
If I didn't know these Kidd books were written by the same author as the Prey series, starring Lucas Davenport, I'd never have guessed it. These books are a little corny to me. They seem awfuly implausible books to and with some of the descriptions of computer technology... They're already laughable when they start going on about hi-tech computers with tiny hard disk drives, modems and floppy disks being bleeding edge technology!
