Review: Debonair Hero, Dark Subject Matter
Rating: 5 out of 5

Spider's Overture is not my usual genre, but I found myself unable to put it down.The hero, Nicolas White, is sort of the James Bond of computer nerds. By that, I mean he's a debonair ladies' man who can hack into any computer. His work for law enforcement takes him into the dark world of child predators where his faith in humanity is tested. Nicolas's adventures are repellant, fascinating, haunting and heartbreaking.There's just enough detail on the computer hacking for it to be interesting but not so much it's overwhelming. The criminal investigation details are tastefully done and not offensive at all. I can't wait to read the sequel to this novella (Spider's Dance).
