Morrison, Scott

An entertaining read that will appeal to hockey fans and readers interested in the intersection of sports and politics.

Through its international conspiracy plots, Morrison's fresh, immersive debut exposes the privacy dangers that lie in modern society's commonplace relationship with social technology. Occasionally the techie jargon may fly over some readers' heads, but overall this fast-paced technothriller will attract technophiles, Millennials, and fans of Stieg Larsson's "Millennium" series. [For a more satirical take, see Dave Eggers's The Circle.—Ed.]
