Based in part on an online bet (http: //longbets.org/4/) by Craig Mundie, the Chief Research and Strategy Officer at Microsoft; and Eric Schmidt, the Executive Chairman at Google, that commercial jets will soon be flown without pilots and by computer alone, this fast paced and very plausible thriller could just as easily be in the news as on the bookstands. Set a few years in the near future, but born in North Africa a few decades ago, this diabolical plot spans the globe before it lands in Southern California and tears Annette Madison's life apart. Her son Derek, kidnapped by his Algerian father 20 years ago, is suddenly, wonderfully, back into her life. A computer software programmer, he' lives close and incredibly, works for the same aircraft manufacturer Annette's father had. Trainor Jets builds the worlds' first private jets without pilots, PAAV's; Private Automatic Aerial Vehicles for the well heeled and adventurous public. Annette's joy quickly turns to horror though when her son tries to kill her and she realizes he is not the loving young man she hoped he would grow up to be. In a race against time, with thousands of lives at risk, Annette struggles to grasp with who and what her son has become, why he hates her, and what he is planning to do.
