Octavia has been held captive in her boyfriend's apartment for six months. Victor is an amateur boxer - one of many reasons he is difficult to escape - whose talent for fighting is rivaled only by his delusions of their future together. Alex is a contract killer of underwhelming skill who was bullied into the family business. He's dispatched on the night of Victor's last fight to escort them to their new home beneath a warehouse in Chicago's south suburbs. Octavia pursues her freedom relentlessly despite an onslaught of obstacles that include auditioning for an unwanted job, the advances of her boss and the constant menacing presence of Victor. Then comes the only thing that could makes things worse: Alex falling in love with her.

In a world where security cameras prove what you have done and databases define who you are, the few who know how to manipulate the technology can play God. They can change the future; they can alter the past. They can make big money, they can save the world, and they can get away with murder over and over again. Danielle Leaf grew up believing she was safe. Now she knows she was wrong. Award-winning author Jon Evans returns with new heroes and a compulsive, fast-paced story that examines issues of Third World exploitation and the extreme edge of anti-capitalist activism. Invisible Armies is Cold War suspense for the modern age, a thriller that looks behind the power of protests and the politics of big business. Reviews "Thought-provoking ... Invisible Armies is an intriguing, pacy read and Mr Evans shows great potential."-The Economist "A tough-as-nails technothriller... People who aren't morons and like thriller novels ought to read this."-Bruce Sterling "Evans has created a new genre, the travelogue as fast-paced action thriller."-Montreal Gazette About the Author Jon Evans's novels have been published around the world, translated into half a dozen languages, and praised by The Economist, The Times of London, and the Washington Post. His journalism has appeared in Wired, Reader's Digest, The Guardian, The Globe & Mail, and The Times of India, and he writes a weekly column for TechCrunch. He can be found online at www.rezendi.com.
