Dark Data: Control, Alt, Delete

by Douglas J. Wood

Privacy is an illusion. Social media is a killer.

Led by an elusive, power-hungry Russian oligarch, black hat hacker Paula Jankovic, ISIS leader Abu al-Badri, and their team of career-criminals unleash a superstorm of dark data that aims to trigger a societal and financial collapse of apocalyptic proportions. Rookie journalist Rebecca Taft receives a cryptic code that just might hold the key to thwarting their insidious plans – locked in a most deadly game of wits, will she be able to solve this puzzle of pandemonium before it’s too late?

Douglas J. Wood delivers an unsettling glimpse into the near-future, as experts he interviewed in the writing of his book warn that this dystopian reality is one “click,” “share,” “tweet,” or “like” away.

Doug is the author of the award-winning Samantha Harrison political trilogy. In 2018 he published his memoir, Asshole Attorney: Memories, Musings, and Missteps in A 40-Year Career. His other non-fiction titles include the best-selling text Please Be Ad-Vised: A Legal Reference Guide for the Advertising Executive, now in its seventh edition, and 101 Things I Want to Say…the Collection, a book of fatherly advice to his children.

A partner at Reed Smith LLP, he has over 40 years of experience practicing entertainment and media law, often imparting knowledge gained from his career in his books. He works in New York, lives in New Jersey, has been happily married for over 45 years, is the proud parent to three grown children, and grandfather to two adorable grandchildren. His new novel, Dark Data: Control, Alt, Delete, about cyberwar and financial terrorism will be published this summer.
