  The follow up to Dangerous Data: a digital detective story. The Dogg has been at the keyboard again...What if the work on the human genome project could tell us anything and everything about a person? What if somebody's DNA could be used to deduce whether or not they were murdered - and if they were, who did it? Dogg, who as ever will go where others can't or won't, finds himself caught up in a complex web of lies, abuse and sexual deceit - and death, of course. But the truth is printed in the cells, and sooner or later somebody is going to be found guilty of murder - a fact from which they can not escape...

  Prick yourself and you don't bleed, you download. Your veins are full of data, genetic code. Like any data it can be stored, retrieved and mined, just the same as the details from your credit-card statements. Sound scary? Well, this keeps getting worse. Your data's tested positive. For a condition you never knew you had. Not HIV or diabetes or any common virus. No, the guys in the labs aren't looking for physical symptoms. They want to know other secrets. They're using your data to predict your behaviour. And you've just tested positive for crime. What's that you say? You're innocent! That's not what it says on your file; and the facts don't lie.
