ABOUT THE NOVELLA
Whose side is he on?
Brody Taylor deceives people for a living. After all, humans are the weakest link in all computer systems. If he’s hired to break into your network, he will find and exploit the weak point. You.
The problem with always manipulating people is that even those closest to you don’t trust you.
And Brody’s just fallen for Melanie, a zany, beautiful French animal rights activist. But she’s in love with the character he’s trapped himself in, not the real Brody, social engineer and computer hacker. Can Brody social engineer his way to the truth and save his relationship with Melanie?
A novella that introduces Brody Taylor in a thrilling standalone adventure. At 60 pages, SOCIAL ENGINEER can be read in under two hours!
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Ian Sutherland
Ian Sutherland was brought up in the Outer Hebrides, idyllic remote islands off the west coast of Scotland. In an effort to escape the monotonous miles of heather, bracken and wild sheep, Ian read avidly, dreaming of one day arriving in a big city like London. And then, at the tender age of 12 he was unexpectedly uprooted to Peckham, an inner city suburb of South-East London. Ian quickly discovered that the real London was a damn sight more gritty and violent than the version in his books and shown on tv. Undeterred, Ian did what he did best, and buried his head in books, dreaming of other places to escape to.
Roll forward some years, and Ian can still be found with his head in a book. Or, given that he enjoyed a successful career in the IT industry, an eBook Reader. And now, having travelled a fair bit of the globe in person and even more of it via the Internet, Ian lives with his wife and two daughters in a small idyllic village, surrounded by green fields, copses and the occasional sheep, yet located just outside of the London he finally came to love.
Here, he writes gritty, violent crime thrillers full of well-rounded characters, set in and around London. His stories also feature the online world that most of us jump into blindly each day, but Ian exposes its underbelly and dramatically illustrates how dangerous the internet can be for the unwary.
THE DEEP WEB THRILLER SERIES
Popular culture professes that all hackers are evil. Some are: the blackhats who break into websites one day and steal our identities the next. There are others: whitehats, hackers of good intent who try to prevent the chaos caused by their anonymous adversaries.
And rising above them all is elite hacker and social engineer, Brody Taylor, who is both whitehat and blackhat. In the deep web of cyberspace, he upholds the law by breaking the law, applying blackhat tactics to achieve whitehat outcomes.
