“Path to Peril shows how vulnerable the country is to cyber terrorism. The digital and quantum technology in this international thriller is first rate and leaves the reader wondering if a small group of terrorists could destroy the United State’s financial centers. The horrific events that happen in Portland, Oregon lend credence to the story and expose the dark side to the technology. If ever there was a book made for an action movie, this is the one!”
