The Billion Dollar Sugar Cube - David Blum, #2 - E-book - ePub

In this sequel to The Pangaea Solution, David Blum once again battles the shadowy Global Futures Alliance and their plans for reshaping humanity. Partnering with fellow agent Tina Santini, the pair uncovers a diabolical new plot to integrate artificial intelligence with "The Sugar Cube, " a massive optical computer configured to experience artificial emotion. The GFA's goal? Dissect the internal language of the brain and synthesize sounds that can drive people to extreme emotional states.
As a colonel at the U. S. Army War College warns them, combining such signals with targeted social media could prove more profound to the future of global warfare than even nuclear weapons. From London, Northern Virginia and Maryland, to Cuba and Honduras, the team pursues the scientists and operatives hell-bent on launching and winning the next world war. As the final seconds tick down, Blum must pit his mental strength against that of the Cube itself, knowing he might die in the process.
