ABOUT THE BOOK<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Bright yellow cables against a blue shirt? Carl never would have approved of that color combination. Why was his face so white? His eyes should be closed, not open. Why hadn\u2019t one of the security guards seen this and reported it to the police? The lights were off, the cameras were useless in the dark. <\/em><\/p>\n

Of course, the cables wrapped around Carl\u2019s neck explained why the server wasn\u2019t working. Loss of carrier.<\/em><\/p>\n

Jess Wirth lives a dreary life. He spends most of his time crammed inside a cubicle, toiling as a network engineer and stewing over the details of his ugly divorce. But when he finds his co-worker dead in the basement of their office, Jess\u2019s life takes a surprising\u2014and unpleasant\u2014turn.<\/p>\n

The police quickly declare the death a suicide, but Jess isn\u2019t so sure. Not long after he begins digging into the victim\u2019s work, another co-worker turns up dead, convincing him once and for all that something sinister is brewing behind the cubicle walls.<\/p>\n

His investigation leads him to a mysterious woman name Leah, who pushes him to entrust her with the information he\u2019s collected about his dead colleagues. Wary of Leah\u2019s motives yet inexorably drawn to her, Jess keeps her at arm\u2019s length…until an attempt is made on both their lives. Realizing they are close on the trail of a dangerous criminal, the pair race to expose a data theft ring before they become the killer\u2019s next victims.<\/p>\n

MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was not sure what to expect when I opened Loss Of Carrier<\/a>. Although I am fairly proficient with a computer, my knowledge has been self-taught and I have never been in a network environment. To my surprise, I found this book very readable and enjoyable. The plot moves along quickly and the characters are somewhat different than in the normal suspense novel. I don’t think I have read one yet with a computer geek as the main character but it works.<\/p>\n

Like another reviewer, I noticed several misspellings and grammatical errors. I can’t help it – I used to be a proofreader. Fortunately, the narrative was good enough for me to overlook the errors and enjoy it. This story has plenty of action and suspense, a touch of romance, and good spiritual content. I would say that we should keep an eye on Russ White. He has great potential.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
