    About this ebook

    Computer science student Landry Smith was hoping to use the spring break to get ahead in his studies. But when the dreaded Ransomware virus strikes, he becomes a reluctant pawn in a cat-and-mouse game between computer mastermind Lek and the cyber police. Landry has to deal with crazed computer hackers, over enthusiastic activists, and dubious detectives, before he can get his hands on Lek's secret unlock codes, and finally get back to his computer.
