The Ghost Network
The Ghost Network is a thrilling series in which a diverse group of teenage hackers find themselves in an around-the-world game of cat and mouse. Relying on only one another, can they crack the code and save the world?
Award-winning narrator Andrew Eiden brings the high-suspense, sci-fi adventure to life in Activate (available now), introducing readers to John, Slack, Salome, and Akane. These four kids may be from far-flung corners of the globe, but they share a love of computers, coding, and hacking—in fact, technology literally flows through their veins. After coming together at the Wolf’s Den, a top-secret school for technological excellence hidden deep in Alaska, the team uncovers a shocking secret . . . and their own hidden potential. What began as a new school year turns into a manhunt across the hostile Alaskan tundra and a search for the truth.
Readers (or listeners) left at the edge of their seats won’t have to wait much longer. Plug back into the immersive adventure this fall in Reboot (October 1, 2019)!
