Loading... The Footprints of God (2003)by Greg Iles
None. This was a good, fast moving thriller. I liked how David and Rachel worked together to stop Project Trinity. ( )normally dig his books...this one "eh"....premise is about artificial intelligence in a super computer that threatens to take over the world...think of matthew broderick in "war games"....can we play a game of chess?....bad guy is power hungry billionare.....interesting to talk about but falls short and way too heavy on the ethical and spirituality thing Kept me reading, lots of things happening. Excellent until the last three pages. Then it fell flat. A wonderfully satisfying book that explored the cross-section of science and religion without being boring or preachy. Page-turning and provocative, one of the best from author Greg Iles. no reviews | add a review

As the project's ethicist, Dr. David Tennant works in a firestorm of limitless science and ruthless ambition. After a fellow scientist is murdered, David uncovers who the killer is. Desperate, he turns to Rachel Weiss, the psychiatrist probing the nightmares that have plagued him since joining the project, and both are forced to flee for their lives.
