So...I just got done reading The Blue Nowhere by Jeffery Deaver and I have to say that it was absolutely amazing!! I was so captivated and I couldn't put it down....It's a murder mystery book like most of Deaver's works...so here's a quick summary, tell me if you're interested in it or if you have already read it and we can talk about it.
Quote:
When a sadistic hacker, code-named Phate, sets his sights on Silicon Valley, his victims never know what hit them. He infiltrates their computers, invades their lives, and lures them to their deaths. To Phate, each murder is like a big, challenging computer hack: every time he succeeds, he must challenge himself anew— by taking his methodology to a higher level, and aiming at bigger targets.
Desperate, the head of The California State Police Computer Crimes Division frees Wyatt Gillette, imprisoned for hacking, to aid the investigation — against the loud protests of the rest of the division. With an obsession emblematic of hackers, Gillette fervently attempts to trace Phate's insidious computer virus back to its source. Then Phate delivers a huge blow, murdering one of the division's own — a "wizard" who had pioneered the Internet — and the search takes on a zealous intensity.
Gillette and Detective Frank Bishop — an old-school homicide cop who's accustomed to forensic sleuthing — make an uneasy team. But with a merciless and brilliant killer like Phate in their cross hairs, and his twisted game reaching a fever pitch, they must utilize every ounce of their disparate talents to stop him.

Also, I am looking for a really, REALLY good HORROR novel to read. I finally have a little bit of time on my hands because I'm only working 2 or 3 days this next week and I don't have any exams for school coming up so...someone give me something good. I really like Stephen King...but I'm willing to read absolutely anything.
