Description

Alfred Weber sees what others cannot. Patterns inside numbers. Crimes buried in ordinary data. The math no investigator would think to run. That gift built one of the country's most powerful data science firms. It is about to build something far larger. When a sweeping data bill becomes law, President Mason names Weber the nation's first Data Czar. His algorithm goes live under the name SCALES and begins naming financial criminals the courts never reached. Arrests climb. Detention facilities fill. Half a trillion dollars in stolen wealth surfaces, and Washington decides a machine this profitable should never be slowed by conscience. Then the men who wrote the law reach for the controls. They want the system aimed wider, at people it was never built to name. Weber fights the expansion and is forced out of the agency he was brought in to lead. The infrastructure he designed keeps running without him. Now he is outside the machine he built, hunted by the men who put him in front of the cameras, with almost no one left to trust. All he has is what he knows. The man who built the machine, he will learn, is no less dangerous than the men who corrupted it. For readers of Neal Stephenson, Daniel Suarez, and Blake Crouch.
