There's something in that sound. Something bad. Something dangerous.

Fifteen-year-old Ani Lee is a skilled hacker researching a strange .wav file that she's downloaded that behaves as no file ever should.

Joe Dyson is a seventeen-year-old American transplant recruited into a secret teen division of the British intelligence service who's looking into the disappearance of a friend caught up in an underground music scene that might be more than it appears.

But who's behind it? And why? And how do you stop a sound?

An exhilarating sci-fi techno-thriller that blends music, mind control, and conspiracy perfect for fans of Little Brother, Brain Jack, and Proxy.

Mike A. Lancaster's love of science fiction was first forged at an early age by reading Gulliver's Travels, The War of the Worlds, and Journey to the Center of the Earth and watching Gerry Anderson shows, Doctor Who, Quatermass movies, and Star Trek. His previous novels, 0.4 and The Future We Left Behind, introduced a chilling techno-world where we only think we're in control. He lives with his wife, children, and a menagerie of pets in Peterborough, England.

Will M. Watt was determined not to be one of those penniless artists that his parents warned him about, so decided not to pursue his dream of becoming an actor.

Will's accidental stumble into the world of voice acting has led him from a humble bedroom studio in Oxford, England, to the bright lights of New York City where he now lives with his two four legged roommates, Sara and Rachel.
