Nanotechnology promises all things: immortality, invincibility, wealth beyond imagination---and the utter destruction of mankind. One man has it, and no one knows who. . . .
Mitchell Swain is the richest man in the world, until he announces the "ultimate technological breakthrough." The world stops for the press conference---and sees him assassinated.
No one knows what he was going to say.
Almost no one.
Jennifer Rayne intends to find out. A leading journalist covering high-tech, she was scheduled to interview Swain after the press conference. Instead, she investigates his murder.
What she finds is a scientist to whom Swain has funneled billions . . . a desperate U.S. government following the same clues . . . and a bizarre technology that promises invincibility, immortality, and the ability to destroy any enemy---or the earth itself.
Mankind has entered the final arms race.
It will last two days.
As this breathlessly fast-paced nanothriller unfolds, readers are taken on a stunning tour de force of nanotechnology's promises and perils---until the fate of the earth itself hangs in the balance. . . .

If you are confused about what kind of book a thriller is, pick up Nano. Mitchell Swain is the richest man in America and a true visionary in the technical world. As he takes the podium at his specially called press conference to announce an amazing breakthrough in nanotechnology, he's assassinated by a gun who's trigger is pulled remotely via a laptop computer. Journalist Jennifer Rayne and chief technologist John Merrick know why he was killed and soon who did it because the same people are now after them. The worst part of this book is that it is such a page turner, you are done before you are ready. ( )

While I enjoy techo-thrillers, good ones are hard to find.
Nano is an exception. A genuine page turner with fairly rounded characters. The science is presented in a way that dosen't overwhelm the reader while the moral arguments that arise from the use of the technology give real cause for thought.
Nano is worth your money and worth your time. ( )
