Book 9 in the Spies Lie series

A gifted Stanford hacker. A million-dollar prize. The contest? Create the world’s most advanced sentient AI…

Ann Sashakovich has returned to Stanford to complete her junior year. It’s there she sees the contest: create the world’s most advanced sentient AI. Win a million dollars.

But after running into her cheating ex-boyfriend, and having the intensity of the competition heat up, Ann is left shaken and unsure of her capabilities; or if she’ll be able to win at all. Worse, it seems likely that one of the teams is going to create an unstoppable AI, one without morals, without a conscience, an intelligence that could endanger all of humanity.

When the contest AI’s are hacked, it’ll take Ann to stop the AI before it becomes sentient. If she fails, humankind will face an enemy with nearly omniscient power. No one would be safe.

DS Kane’s gripping ninth novel begs the question: just how dangerous could an AI be to the humanity that created it?

Very well written, as are all the series books…. There is plenty of science, science fiction, and fantasy. The characters are very well written and the action is fast and furious. A very exciting book.

I do love that these books have such a strong, smart female lead and that she is interested in something not traditionally seen as female at all, hacking. So much happens in this book, and I found it to be a gripping, page-turning read.
