Hooked by Matt Richtel

The handwriting is that of his dead girlfriend, a Silicon Valley venture capitalist whom he has been mourning obsessively. So begins HOOKED, a pop thriller for the Internet Age, written with the force of an adrenaline rush and the pace of an intimate email despatch you can't stop reading. Each chapter will keep you hooked as Nat searches for the love of his life in the midst of manipulation and conspiracy.
