"Omaha is a technological thriller sure to please" W.M. Buhle, Midwest Book Review
"I would actually recommend the book to those who like the techno-thriller genre" Ben Shafer, Ph.D.

   From the hidden cyber realm that permeates our day-to-day lives, comes an Orwellian thriller about a band of mild mannered computer geeks who are the lords of this unseen electronic empire. Take an ingenious and sometimes comical journey into this invisible domain and glimpse at the many covert ways in which it chronicles our every action and controls our everyday lives. Read a cautionary tale of how the ordinary tools of modern life that we take for granted can be quickly turned against us and the extent to which we are at their mercy and that of their anonymous and enigmatic masters.

   The story is set in Omaha at a mysterious computer security research center concealed in an old fortress-like converted warehouse where a young cable news network reporter and his computer geek girl friend have fled for help.
