The Kraken Project

The Kraken Project by Douglas Preston
384 Pages

An ill-named book, the book is about the Artificial Intelligence called Dorothy who was design to run a probe for NASA to Saturn's moon Titan.  However a miscalculations leads to disaster and Dorothy escapes to the internet.  Former CIA agent Wyman Ford is asked by the President to help track down the rogue AI but soon he and her designer Melissa Shepherd find themselves in a race to save Dorothy from a group of Wall Street investors who want the program to make money and don't care who they kill to get it.

A fast paced combination of suspense and science fiction, Preston has created a novel that many readers will enjoy.
