by Brian Pinkerton (Author)

Meet your new coworker. She's brilliant. She's beautiful. She's unreal.

Everyone loves Alison, the new remote employee at a major energy company. She's a rising star in the virtual workspace, displaying incredible intelligence and efficiency with digital technology. But Linda, her manager, has growing suspicions that Alison is not the person she claims to be. As Linda probes Alison's background, Alison fights back through cyber-attacks, ravaging Linda's work, her family and her safety. Linda must uncover the truth to save herself and discovers Alison's past history is a lie - in fact, she has none. Is it possible Alison isn't human at all?
