Net Force: Attack Protocol
ByPublisher Description
“Jerome Preisler takes us deep into the dark side of the web and maybe our near future with Net Force: Attack Protocol. Robots, AI, the usual Net Force violence and action: Attack Protocol maps the threats so well, tomorrow’s miscreants may use it as a template. Hopefully the good guys do as well.” —Jim DeFelice, NYT best-selling author of American Sniper, Rogue Warrior, Dreamland
The bestselling Net Force thriller series, created by Tom Clancy and Steve Pieczenik and written by Jerome Preisler, reveals the invisible battlefield where the war for global dominance is fought.
The president’s new cybersecurity team, Net Force, is up and running. But a political deadlock in Washington makes the young agency dangerously vulnerable to the criminals, terror groups and hostile governments who would use the digital space to advance their destructive goals.
In Central Europe, an unknown enemy mounts a crippling high-tech assault against the organization’s military threat-response unit on its home base. The strike casts suspicion on a core member of Net Force, threatening to destroy the cyber defense group from within. But as they race to track down their attackers, the stakes are suddenly ratcheted higher. For a global syndicate of black hat hackers and a newly belligerent Russia are hatching a mysterious, shadowy scheme for world domination from a place known only as the Secret City.
Their attack protocol: leave Net Force in ashes while Moscow and its Dark Web allies set the stage for a devastating strike against the United States.
Unless the men and women of Net Force can regroup in time to stop them.

“For full disclosure, the publisher contacted me via Netgalley regarding this book. I love a good mystery or thriller so I thought, “Why not?!” What sounded like a promising premise did not turn out to be a book for me.
In my opinion, this book suffers from a whole lot of too much all around. The point of view changes constantly and rapidly. I lost track of the number of people’s points of view I read from but my best guess would be AT LEAST 15-20 people. The story still could have effectively been told even with editing this down to make it clearer for the reader.
On top of having everyone and their mother’s point of view, there was endless details, much of which was unnecessary or was simply put in to get a reaction out of the reader (and not the kind of reaction I want). I work in a somewhat investigative space and understand how incredibly complex a good crime scheme is… but there are again ways this could have been edited down to streamline and still have the same impact, the same story.
There were a couple of redeeming moments, such as when all of the information thrown at you chapter after chapter finally pulls the puzzle together. And there’s a female U.S. President (finally). But I barely made it to those points.
Overall, this is a rare two star read for me.
Thank you to Harlequin and Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book. I have voluntarily read this book and the review expresses my own personal opinion.”

“Full review on my blog, https://storiedadventures.blog/2019/11/26/net-force-dark-web-by-jerome-preisler-tom-clancy-and-steve-pieczenik-spoiler-free-review/
Likes: Writing was well done. Plot was interesting. HIVE with Audrey Hepburn’s voice as she simulates a very real seeming virtual reality. The plot seemed so real! A cyber threat is really scary. The fact that a terrorist group could potentially take control of our devices, is terrifying.
Dislikes: It was very slow. It didn’t pick up until over half way through the book. I also didn’t connect with any of the characters.”
