About this ebook
When a virus is unleashed on the Department of Defense’s computers, programmer Marshall “The Worm” Fenwick is certain he’ll be blamed. After all, it’s an act of cyber-vandalism worthy of a man with a history of hacking, a false accusation that Marshall's never been able to live down. Marshall knows he didn’t do it. It had to be someone else at ApplCart, the virus protection company he works for. Marshall can arrest the damage and escape going down for the crime himself if he can find—and find it in time—the One Bad Apple among the company’s employees.

Chapter One
The minute he read about it, the Worm knew they would try to pin the crime on him. This time, though, it might in fact be his fault.
Defense Computers Under Attack!
screamed the headline over one article among the hundreds that had been downloaded to the Worm's computer by the various RSS feeds, LISTSERVs, and Internet newsgroups he subscribed to.
