P. J. Thorndyke: Dial-Up and Die, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

In the summer of 1999, four Maryland high school students died in mysterious circumstances. All of them were obsessed with the internet but when investigators looked into their alternate lives in cyberspace, they found something terrifying.

Some judged it a suicide pact. Others, the work of a serial killer. But there is increasing evidence that the online activities of the victims attracted the attention of something more sinister, something that dwells within the internet itself ...

For the first time ever, this book collects and presents all of the evidence in narrative order, including a recently surfaced online journal long withheld by the authorities. Read the harrowing accounts of the victims themselves through chatroom conversations and emails along with newspaper reports from the time as they paint a terrifying picture of America's youth on the cusp of the millennium and a new technological age.
