Samenvatting:

Identified is a near-future hacker thriller featuring realistic hacks. It's the first book in the West Wilder series, for readers of Daniel Suarez's Daemon and fans of Mr. Robot.

West Wilder leaves prison on one condition: never break into computers again. He re-enters a world where national security agencies have formed a global force to surveil the internet. Your Global Personal Identity is used everywhere, even at the grocery store.

His mom fought fifteen years to get him paroled. When the government puts its thumb on her, something has to be done. But how to fight back when they know your every move? You forge a new digital identity and go underground, that's how.

Hacking in Identified is grounded in how it's actually done. Real exploits, real social engineering. You don't have to understand technology to enjoy the story, but it's there if you want it. There is some violence but it's rare and deeply felt – hacks over guns. This is a thriller about privacy, surveillance, and the choice between compliance and resistance.
