About this ebook
In the early 1920s, nearly blind physics prodigy Mourly Vold finds out how to tap into the nation's long distance telephone lines. With the help of Alexander Graham Bell, Vold tries to warn the phone companies that would-be saboteurs could do the same thing, but they ignore him. Unfortunately, his taps do catch the notice of William Randolph Hearst, who hires Thomas Edison to get to the bottom of them—and the chase is on!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5An intriguing mix of fact and fiction, with a liberal dose of scientific history. Set in the early 1920s, at a time when the telephone network was the information superhighway of the era, the story investigates the activities of the world's first hackers.It's the sort of book that makes you want to find out more - to work out where the boundary between the fiction and the facts lies.
