Ghost: Stephanie McBride, #1 – Kobo eBook

She arrests the hacker. Then she needs him to find the one hiding behind him.

In Meningie, Logan Robinson and his mate Davo hack Anthol Logistics to expose a farm safety cover-up. It is righteous, careful work, and someone rides in behind them.

D@@Mladen has no history and no face. He uses the breach to plant a SCADA Trojan in the pumps that feed the Murray-Darling, and the packet trail points straight at Logan.

Detective Sergeant Stephanie McBride follows that trail from the Glasshouse, SAPOL’s windowless cybercrime room in Keswick, kept cold enough to hold her focus together. She arrests Logan. Then she offers him a consultant’s plea deal, because only a hacker can read a ghost’s handwriting.

The case closes. D@@Mladen does not.
