Sinossi

The setting: Hollywood. The year: 1943.
 
When death strikes at the austere, castle-like home of Earl Falkoner, an erratic designer of Hollywood sets and a would-be playwright, his hired writers and hired help—not to mention his dogs, his massive bodyguards, and his lady friends—become enmeshed in a chesslike game. Who is the killer? Luckily Lieutenant Tuck, with the able assistance of policewoman Brigit, is on the case to sort out clues.
 
"Wonderful. I can only add: Don't miss it." —Albuquerque Tribune
 
"Everything about the book is fantastic, but if you like to lose yourself among fantastic people, this is the mystery for you." —Birmingham News

    In Rebel Hackers of Point Breeze, authors Nelson Hamel and Charles Sibley spin a mind-bending techno-thriller that pushes the boundaries of human evolution, digital consciousness, and global power struggles. Jonas Cartwright—a brilliant, wheelchair-bound hacker—surpasses every conventional notion of identity when he digitizes his own mind, transferring his consciousness first into another human’s body, and eventually roaming the global web as a bodiless intelligence. Teaming up with a secretive crew of fellow “Rebel Hackers,” Jonas wields quantum computers to infiltrate, rebuild, and—when pushed—devastate the systems of the world’s mightiest governments and corporations. 
    Their pursuit of ultimate code—where DNA fuses with the digital realm—upends geopolitics. The Rebels’ clandestine quest to outmaneuver superpowers thrusts them from the rustic community of Point Breeze, New York, to the frozen expanses of Greenland, and across clandestine server farms in China, Russia, and beyond. Meanwhile, statesmen, generals, and rogue agents scramble for control of the “holy grail”—fully digitized human minds—capable of toppling entire civilizations at the speed of light. As cyber warfare erupts worldwide, the Rebels race to prevent chaos from spiraling into irreversible doom. 
    At its core, Rebel Hackers of Point Breeze is a daring exploration of ethical lines and ultimate frontiers. Can consciousness break free of the body without breaking humanity itself? Should unstoppable digital power be shared, sold, or suppressed? And what does it mean to remain human once our very essence can be uploaded, copied, or destroyed at the press of a button? In a narrative that blends breakneck suspense, scientific vision, and philosophical intrigue, Hamel and Sibley deliver a riveting testament to how thin the line is between brilliance and catastrophic chaos, especially when you dare to play God in the quantum age.

    Helping her best friend solve an old family mystery has put Gustavia in danger. Between dealing with Julie’s crazy ex and her own turbulent family relationships, the last thing Gustavia needs is another distraction.

But, when her psychic adviser insists she has already met her soul mate, romantic prospects look bleak. 
    Finn Kent is no prince, just an ordinary guy who wants to protect his daughter from another devastating loss. He is definitely not pushing Gustavia away to protect his own heart. That is the story and he is sticking to it.

    In crafting this tale, I've drawn from a wealth of analogies and insights that resonate with your interests. Traveling through the pages of this audiobook will feel like a thrilling adventure in a foreign land, where every turn prompts new discoveries and every character unveils another layer of the story. Just as beading requires patience and precision, so does piecing together the elements of our mystery, each bead symbolizing a clue, each string forming a connection that leads us to the heart of the mystery. Imagine a quiet little town named Pinewood, where everyone knows each other’s name and no secret stays secret for long. The town is like a tightly woven fabric, each thread representing a personal connection. But what happens when one thread is pulled, and the entire fabric threatens to unravel? That's where our story begins. A routine annual festival takes an ominous turn when a prominent figure in the community suddenly vanishes. The event shakes Pinewood to its core, raising questions and suspicions as deep as the canyons that surround the town.
