 \n<p>"You have been abandoned." A young woman has gone missing in Silicon 
 Valley and her father has hired Colter Shaw to find her. The son of a surv
 ivalist family\, Shaw is an expert tracker. Now he makes a living as a "re
 ward seeker\," traveling the country to help police solve crimes and priva
 te citizens locate missing persons. But what seems a simple investigation 
 quickly thrusts him into the dark heart of America's tech hub and the cutt
 hroat billion-dollar video-gaming industry. "Escape if you can." When anot
 her victim is kidnapped\, the clues point to one video game with a trouble
 d past--The Whispering Man. In that game\, the player has to survive after
  being abandoned in an inhospitable setting with five random objects. Is a
  madman bringing the game to life? "Or die with dignity." Shaw finds himse
 lf caught in a cat-and-mouse game\, risking his own life to save the victi
 ms even as he pursues the kidnapper across both Silicon Valley and the dar
 k 'net. Encountering eccentric game designers\, trigger-happy gamers and r
 uthless tech titans\, he soon learns that he isn't the only one on the hun
 t: someone is on his trail and closing fast.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>Questions ab
