  'If you are watching this videotape then I am dead ...' Yesterday, David Tennant was a highly respected Ethicist with the ear of the President, working on a top secret Government project. Yesterday, he was a man recovering from personal tragedy, just learning to live again. Yesterday, he was falling in love. Today, he is running for his life. Project Trinity has the power to change life forever. Only a few, handpicked men and women know the potential of the biggest artificial intelligence study the world has ever seen. Now, one of those men is dead - and Tennant knows Dr Fielding's death wasn't all it seemed. Suddenly his friend's warnings cannot be dismissed as paranoia. They are the only reason that Tennant is still alive. Today, David Tennant is one man against the state, and he's fast learning the only rule of survival: Trust no-one. Not even yourself.

  For nearly fifty years the Holy Grail of Artificial intelligence has been to create a super computer that can think like the human brain. Has that time finally come? David Tenant knows everything there is to know about the project named Trinity. He knows of the advantages that it can bring to the world, but he's also seen the side effects that the research has had on those involved - including himself. But there are some who don't appreciate opposition and they will stop at nothing, including murder, to allow the project to continue. Suddenly David finds himself a hunted man, trying to keep his life intact whilst fighting his own demons. What follows is a desperate and fascinating game of psychological brinkmanship between Tenant and the Trinity computer. Is the situation unsolovable? The new Greg Iles will stun every reader that dares to turn the page.
