When the cops of Longstreet, Mississippi see a black boy running away from them and cluthing something in his hand, there's only one thought in their minds - bag snatcher. So they shoot him in the back. Except, Darrell Clark isn't a thief he's a computer-crazy fourteen-years-old, who was running home before his ice-cream melted. And now he's dead.

When the writer dies, his sister contact Kidd - adrist computer whiz and professional criminal. Together with his sometime partner/sometime lover, LuEllen, Kidd begins an investigation which leads them both into a conspiracy at the highest levels - a conspiracy that could have stunning results of national security... and lead to Kidd and LuEllen's violent deaths.

Kidd is a pretty good painter, but it's seeling his genius with computers that pays his rent. The billionaire owner of Anshiser Aviation offers him his biggest ever payday to deal with a corporate spy and wreak havoc on the computers of Anshiser's rival, for whom he was working. For this money, Kidd is even willing to work with a team - LuEllen, a cat burglar, and Dace, a jurnalist who'll do anything for a scoop.But Kidd finds that computer fraud is child's play compared with the degence industry's Machiavellian games. Lives are soon on the line in this cool, high-tech thriller fron the "New York Times" bestseller.
