This book was very much not what I was anticipating after reading its blurb. What seemed to start out as a typical mystery/thriller soon spirals into technological speculative social commentary. This furtistic crime thriller takes you on a twisted journey showing you the good, the bad and the ugly sides of technology. How we use it, how it uses us, and the frightening but not unrealistic possibilities right at out fingertips, inside our homes, and in our near future. Be prepared to walk away questioning who the true 'bad guys' are and how safe we all are in our own homes.

(2 ⭐ e 1/2) a história avança rapidamente, o que é bastante cativante em geral, mas a tradução por vezes torna-se um bocado cringe e deixa a desejar
