This is a unique book for me, as it lists as a suspense novel. This is a story about a hacker named Kidd who gets involved investigating the murder of a friend by request of his friend's sister. This gets wrapped into a federal investigation of a hacking group known as Firewall. The story bounces between several states, deals with details of being a thief, a hacker, and an amateur detective that is covering their own arse.

I didn't realize this to be the third book in the series, but the writer did allow for the first time reader with adequate details. I liked the way that the story laid out and it moved with a decent pace. Some points dragged as they gave extraneous details that may or may not have been necessary for the movement of the book. AS a story, it was decent enough, though I'm not sure if I would read the entire series.

As for the audio style of the book, I didn't care for this reader. He didn't change the voice inflection enough for a woman vs a man when reading dialog. His voice sounded scratchy, which may fit the character but I didn't care for it as I listened. ( )

First time I read this author. Premised looked interesting (I like hacker novels) The main character, Kidd gets involved with a friends sister when his friend ends up dead under suspicious circumstances. Turns out the company that is manufacturing a cipher chip for the governement has found other uses for its technology and satellites when it is obvious that the chip is redundant. Alot of this book reads like that. The tech definitely shows its age, and alot of the methods he employs is hard to believe. It is still an interesting and exciting book. ( )

The Devil's Code. Kidd gets into this mess becuase a freind of his suffers a violent death under suspicious circumstances. He meets up with his friends sister it leads to all kinds of big trouble. Turns out someone is using government financing and satalites to line their own pockets. Kidds friend was killed for accidentally finding proof of treason. When messing with people dealing with that kind of money they play for keeps. ( )

OK book, exciting

The jacket goes on to say that this is a masterpiece of suspense. I beg to differ. I had trouble getting through it because I didn’t care about anyone in it or anything that was happening to them. The computer stuff didn’t make a whole lot of sense – some of the technology described was impossible and blew the credibility of the premise for me.
