Description

Marcus, a.k.a “w1n5t0n,” is just seventeen yrs old, but he figures he currently understands how the system works–and how to perform the system. Intelligent, fast, and a good idea to the methods for the networked world, he's no difficulty outwitting his large school’s invasive but awkward monitoring systems.But his entire world changes when he and his buddies end up trapped in the aftermath of a significant terrorist strike on Bay Area. In the wrong place at the wrong moment, Marcus and his team are apprehended from the Office of Homeland Security and whisked away to a secret prison where they’re mercilessly interrogated for days.When the DHS ultimately produces them, Marcus finds that his town has turned into a police state where every resident is treated just like a potential terrorist. He understands that no one will believe his story, which leaves him just one choice: to defeat the DHS herself.
