"A tight, gripping tale of the men and women who face death in the hidden conflicts of superpower politics. Startlingly believable."--Ben Bova, six-time Hugo Award-winning author of Mars and the Grand Tour series ""If you believe the Cold War ended with the fall of the Berlin Wall - think again! Max Karpov's explosive novel shows how Russia's sophisticated troll factories and bot armies could topple Western democracies as effectively as their T72 battle tanks and nuclear warheads.Karpov's knowledge of the American intelligence community and Russian politics puts him on a par with John le Carr and Frederick Forsyth at their very best. But it is Karpov's analysis of the shocking power of a targeted post-truth and fake news attack that gives the book a contemporary and chilling atmosphere. A new master thriller writer has emerged, and I am looking forward to reading many more of Max Karpov's novels."--Christopher Hepworth, author of The Sleepwalker Legacy and The Last Oracle Praise for Viral " VIRAL is a world-class thriller. It doesn't get any more real than this. Lilliefors has created one of the most compelling novels of international espionage I've come across in a long time." -- Vince Flynn, #1 New York Times bestselling author "Impressively intricate plot and non-stop action ... Fans of intelligently written page-turners will be rewarded." -- Publishers Weekly "The outbreak of a mysterious disease in the Third World is the first assault in a deviously stealthy international plot. ( VIRAL ) maintains suspense with vivid, direct prose and a skillfully developed plot." -- Kirkus Reviews "Solidly plotted and featuring a unique pair of protagonists -- you don't often find a team of brothers as action heroes -- the book is sure to appeal to fans of thrillers with Big Ideas and capital-V villains. A sequel is in the works, which is a good thing: readers will leave the book wanting to see more of Charles and Jon." -- Booklist "VIRAL weaves genetics, nanotechnology and robotics into a complex tapestry of international geopolitics and nails the details. Lilliefors' debut is brilliant, with realistic science, tight pacing, and believable characters in a gripping story of the audacity of dehumanized science." -- Jeffrey Anderson, M.D., Ph.D., international bestselling author of Sleeper Cell and Implant Praise for THE LEVIATHAN EFFECT "Drawing on actual government experiments and projects, award-winning journalist Lilliefors convincingly sells the tale of natural disaster modification ... [A] suspenseful book with believable action and interesting science that will captivate weather buffs." -- Library Journal "Reads like a gathering storm . . . The book's Americanness gives it an immediate visual quality that shouts 'Make a Bruce Willis movie out of me.'" -- Andrew Burstein, The Advocate (Baton Rouge), Praise for Viral " VIRAL is a world-class thriller.

Synopsis
A frighteningly plausible, fast-paced thriller about a Russian cyberattack on America, involving fake news and anonymous hackers. The CIA has learned that the Kremlin is about to launch a sophisticated propaganda operation aimed at discrediting and disrupting the United States and ultimately restoring Russia to great nation status. Intercepted intelligence suggests that the operation will hinge on a single, breaking news event in Eastern Europe, supported by a sustained campaign of disinformation and cyberattacks. Code-named the "Children's Game"--a chess stratagem that leads to checkmate in four moves--it was probably conceived by a Russian billionaire and former FSB officer named Andrei Turov. For years Turov has been developing the infrastructure for a new kind of warfare that exploits weaknesses in western democracies and manipulates public opinion. His organization offers the Kremlin plausible deniability. But the United States has its own secret weapon: Christopher Niles, a former CIA intelligence officer, who understands Turov's ambitions and capabilities. It falls to him and his small team--composed of his journalist half-brother Jon, a special forces operative he would trust with his life, and Anna Carpenter, a resourceful US senator with deep roots in the intelligence community--to unravel Turov's plot and restore truth to a world spiraling into chaos. The Children's Game is a frighteningly realistic, timely thriller that delves into the secret corners of Vladimir Putin's Russia, exploring the shifting world order and the murky realm of US-Russia relations., A frighteningly plausible, fast-paced thriller about a Russian cyberattack on America, involving fake news and anonymous hackers.

    This book is fantastic! The quality is exactly as described, it’s in great condition, the appearance is clean and basically brand-new, and it came at an excellent price. This is a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. They packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively throughout the process.

    Excellent prices on used books in great condition. Shipped out quickly. Product condition is accurate to rating in listing. Thanks! NOTE: For this particular book (I ordered several), it came in a soft cover rather than hard cover as the listing stated. I contacted the seller and they responded promptly. They agreed that it was a listing error and provided me with a full refund for this book (without return required) proving they are both a responsible and trustworthy seller.
