Lior Samson is an author who uses setting and location to maximum effect. Together with international politics and a spy thriller of the highest level, the adventure takes us from Madeira and Florida to Poland.
The world of computers and computer chips might be confusing to some but don’t let this put you off as it’s not specialised or over detailed in any way. Part fantasy and futuristic in tone, this is a thriller in a new world and in new locations which gives it a unique spin. Madeira is the star of the show so to speak but then the world portrayed of hackers being able to get into computers and control them is frightening at best but takes on a new level here.
The powerful parallel story – set in World War II -illustrates and examines the Jewish experience and makes for a heartbreaking contrast to the modern day storyline.
