Description
Fiction book based on non-fiction technology happening today. This book focuses on the importance of the Quantum computer; companies such as MIT or Los Alamos have been designing quantum computers for the past 20+ years. Plot Aaron watches in horror as a garbage truck pulls up to his family’s home and fires a rocket into the house, blowing it to smithereens. Aaron screams as he watches his Mom and Dad perish in the fire. He regains his senses just in time to get out of sight as the killers turn to look for witnesses. Aaron, a bright 12 year old, makes a quick decision that he must leave the scene immediately and find the only person he has left in the world, his grandfather. Afraid for his life, he scrambles on all fours into the bushes and then he is gone. Unbeknownst to Aaron, terrorists stole a top-secret computer, built by his father and a team of scientists at the National Security Agency(NSA), from a secret hiding place in the family home. Too late did the terrorists realize that the computer was a clever decoy, that they had been duped. But who is duping whom? Aaron, now 18, receives a much-wanted computer he needs for college. His grandfather tells him it’s a belated gift from his dead father and tells him not to tell anyone the source of the computer, that the gift is a FAMILY SECRET. A year later, the terrorists get an inkling that the quantum computer exists and the chase is on.
