Terrorism on the Internet? A Plausible Idea in Today’s World

Terrorism on the Internet – a plausible idea in today’s world – is both intriguing and frightening. Author Robert Lanzone’s first novel, Cyberjihad, chronicles just such a clandestine scheme.

(PRWEB) March 9, 2005 -- What kind of harm can terrorists achieve on the Internet? Author Robert Lanzone's novel, Cyberjihad (ISBN 1-4208-2145-8) reveals a terrorist plot so convincing, it places the book on the hairy edge of non-fiction.

Synopsis: A Wall Street computer whiz travels through cyberspace, where he stumbles upon terrorists plotting to destabilize the world’s economy and nuclear defenses. Reluctantly sucked in by government bureaucrats, this computer genius becomes torn between the safety of loved ones and defusing acts of global terrorism.

Plot Details: Kyle Pemberton, a Wall Street computer whiz, takes on an international assignment after the untimely death of Christopher Moran, his good friend and predecessor on an important IT project at their firm. In his new role, he shadows a dubious consultant through cyberspace and stumbles upon a clandestine computer network called the Control Grid. In his quest to investigate, Kyle enlists the help of his trusted colleagues. Together, they launch an incursion into the labyrinth of computer networks and communication lines. Unfortunately, they spark the attention of the Cyberjihad, a terrorist organization plotting to infiltrate this fabric of connections and circuitry to destabilize the world's security and economy. The terrorists scramble to use the Control Grid to eliminate Kyle and his cyber-compatriots, hastening an international crisis. Pemberton ultimately finds himself faced with the colossal task of short-circuiting global terrorism.
