I kept finding other books to grab my attention.I finally got around to reading this, and I wish I had sooner. I wanted something short and fun and this fit the bill nicely.The book opens with Turner, a mercenary for hire, who specializes in aggressive corporate recruiting, of a sort. His job involves extracting high value employees from one corporation to another.We then meet Marly, the disgraced former operator of a small art gallery in Paris. She is hired by Herr Josef Virek, an enormously wealthy collector to track down the creator of some rare boxes.Finally we meet Bobby, a young cyber cowboy trying to make a name for himself.How do these three stories relate to one another? I asked myself the same question. The answer was in a fun and easy cyberpunk thriller. I'm looking forward to fitting in [b:Mona Lisa Overdrive 154091 Mona Lisa Overdrive (Sprawl, #3) William Gibson http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1320558292s/154091.jpg 1263322] at some point soon.
