Echoes by Laura Tisdall
(Excerpt from Goodreads) “There is truth to be shared. Let us begin…”
Volatile mathematical genius Mallory Park is living two lives. In one, she is balancing senior year with looking after her little brother and troubled ex-Marine father; in the other, she spends her nights glued to her laptop, breaking into some of the world’s most secure systems as the hacker Echo Six.
As part of a corruption-exposing cyber network called the Forum, Mallory is far more at ease among the codes and hidden identities of her online world than she has ever been in the real one, but when other hackers start to go missing, she finds herself caught up in a web of secrets that could have repercussions far beyond both.
When anyone can be a name on a screen, how do you know who to trust?
My Review
5 stars
Mallory lives a double life. In the real world she is a 16 year old girl that has a sever phobia of being touched, tries to be unnoticed, and takes care of her Marine father suffering from PTSD and her little brother. At night she becomes Echo Six, a hacker that becomes part of the Forum. When another hacker disappears this is brought to her attention. She starts working together with Warden to try and figure out what is going on. But the more she looks into the disappearance the more she stands out on the radar and will be fighting for more than just her hacker life.
This is a great story. Mallory just loves being a hacker but she emerges to run her real life just enough to take care of her father and brother then goes back into the internet. I really liked how she is made real with her phobia of being touched. And enticing her with the mystery of hackers disappearing, I loved it! I also liked how Echo Six and The Warden worked so well together. DO I see romance in the future?
This is a great thriller, mystery. There is a rough real world and even rougher virtual world. There is a great story and you are left wanting more. I can’t wait to read more of Laura Tisdall’s stories.
To purchase Echoes, or for more information, make sure to check out Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Goodreads, and Laura Tisdall’s website.
