The Perfect Algorithm
This novella is a quick, intense read that kept me guessing how it was going to turn out. Just when I thought I had it all figured out and things were coming to a head, I found out how wrong I was. Maybe you’ll figure things out better than I did or maybe not. Either way if you’re in to intense thrillers this one delivers.
