Devil's Plaything cover

This is a smart and cautionary neuro-tech thriller about a plot to re-engineer our brains, by the 2010 Pulitzer Prize winner for Journalism, NYT science reporter, Matt Richtel.

"This thriller pushes the envelope to the edge and beyond in exciting and unique ways. Talk about a buddy story: How about a seasoned investigator and his octogenarian grandmother rushing against a ticking clock? Smart, captivating, sophisticated, I can't say enough about this deftly-told story." -- Steve Berry "With Devil's Plaything, Matt Richtel confirms what his first novel suggested: that he's the absolute master of crafting amazing fiction around cutting edge science. Richtel's singular gift is his ability to convey the human components of technological change. This is an utterly absorbing read -- gripping, exciting, touching and terrifying. " -- David Liss
