Cyber attack / Tim Washburn. - New York, NY : Pinnacle Books, 2018 - 456 pages ; 19 cm

"It begins with a computer malfunction. A 737 passenger jet drops from the sky from 34,000 feet. Then another. And another. At the same time, the unthinkable happens in our nuclear power plants. Water pumps fail. Nuclear cores melt. Untold millions could die . . . With each passing hour, orchestrated cyber attacks unleash a massive wave of death and utter destruction. Chemical plants explode. Floodgates burst open. Power grids self-destruct. From Wall Street to Washington, the fear is going viral--and the panic could lead to the total annihilation of America. Missiles and guns are useless. Generals and diplomats are powerless. America's last hope lies with two specially trained FBI agents: Hank Goodnight and computer programmer Paige Randall, who must penetrate the darkest recesses of the web and infiltrate the twisted network of a faceless enemy. And dare to fight fire with fire--apocalypse be damned . . ."--Publisher's desription.
