Hack to the Chief [query]
To Whom This May Concern;
I have written a suspense/thriller novel which is entitled “Hack To The Chief”. The full manuscript is available on request. It may also be viewed, along with my other works at my website, which is listed above.
In “Hack To The Chief”, a very wealthy hacker entrepreneur has his business destroyed, and millions of dollars in assets and capital stolen from him by a group of Middle Eastern terrorists. In the first few chapters of the book, we watch him lose everything he owns as the terrorists demand in return for their blackmail, for him to begin to follow a specific set of instructions they communicate to him via a go – between. After eluding them for a few days, he is finally forced to submit, and is sent on a mission to Washington, D.C. to hack into the top secret files of the Pentagon. The terrorists are planning an assassination attempt in conjunction with the heist of a nuclear arm they will take when our national emergency weapons procedures are put in place. The trail turns deadly, as slowly our man is set up to take the fall for the assassination itself, led by the hand to infiltrating the secret travel plans within Secret Service itinerary files he extracts using his sophisticated internet breaking and entering programs he has built into his server over the years. As he is acquiring the terrorist’s demands and being puppet mastered by their hands, he takes to desperate measures to try and build a program whose code would warn the Secret Service on the day he now sees lying in wait. In a very tense and untimely final showdown, he is set to either become the world’s most infamous assassin, or the most unlikely of heroes as he “Hacks” to the Chief.
This book comes to form from a wellspring of information I have gathered over the years from the most unlikely of sources. As a blogger, I gathered at one point a blog which was gaining the attention of about a thousand hits a day from my various writings. Evidently, I attracted a very unusual crowd, as for the next two years I experienced the most unsightly and bizarre hacking into my various, rather large collection of internet accounts which added to my online presence. The things these people can do, as I learned through study and research in such places as Wired Magazine etc. is absolutely mind blowing. At a college I was attending, a favorite professor of mine recommended that I take the time to write a book about a hacker who is surviving, and in fact thriving from the merits of his code breaking alone. I took it to heart, and went on a search in my creative catalogues to find the plot that would enable me to build a protagonist whose change of heart could allow the reader to fall in love with his character, while being enthralled by his hacking genius.
I look forward to hearing your feedback on my rather lengthy project. I promise the file you will receive will be untainted by any bugs. I have been bug free for quite some time now, thanks to the timely protection built by many decoding friends I have in various agencies and companies. Thank you for your consideration for my hail to the thief suspense thriller “Hack To The Chief”.
Sincerest Regards,
