Michaelmas

More about the book

Laurent Michaelmas didn't get the information he needed as a reporter from the usual sources. With the aid of Domino, a highly sophisticated portable computer that could virtually think for itself, he had plugged himself into every electronic communications network in the world. He not only knew everything that happened the instant it happened, he could also make things happen the way he wanted. So how had the astronaut - believed dead in an horrific space shuttle accident - turned up in a Swiss sanatorium without them knowing anything about it? Why all the secrecy and subterfuge? Why did Domino hit a brick walll every time it tried to get close to the mystery? The answer was staggering - and it posed a direct threat to mankind's continued existence on earth.
