This dual timeline follows two men in the Jouett family. Jack is fighting in the Revolutionary war and is on a special mission for Thomas Jefferson. Paul is living in the present and is fighting in the war against the dark web and cyber terrorism. Both became members of an elite unit that answers only to the President. One is fighting to create a nation; the other to preserve our nation. While I did not understand much of the coding and networking language, I did appreciate the complexity and our utter dependency of it working correctly. Going Dark, by George Mehok was a fascinating and scary read.
