About this book
At the age of five, Porter saw his parents die in a car crash. He doesn’t remember much... just his dad’s instruction to, ‘Run!’
Having been rescued by a hunter living in the woods, Porter has lived quietly out of sight. Until now. At the age of 14, he has been lured away by a friend of his parents with the promise of finding out more about them and their work on nano-particles and the human brain.
At the Department Of Machine and Artificial Intelligence, or DOMAIN, Porter becomes a living experiment as his brain is impregnated with these particles, allowing him access to all information available online. Effectively, he becomes a superhero.
But, as he is put to work trying to foil a plot that threatens national security, Porter realises that his skills come with a downside. And that not everyone he has put faith into can be trusted.
Reading like a high-octane action movie, this nail-biting tech thriller is packed with edge-of-seat moments as Porter goes it alone: skilfully riding a high-powered motor bike, executing wicked martial arts moves and rescuing passengers from certain death by piloting a doomed aircraft. All while uncovering the secrets of his past.
