Reviews and Awards: Honorable Mention Winner in the General Fiction Category Hollywood Book Festival 7-27-2007. Joe Taylor of ForeWord CLARION Reviews rates it 5 STARS (*****): "Nicholas Bain's first novel could accurately be called a cyber-thriller, although it is nicely unencumbered by hacker jargon or high technology specs. Bain sometimes takes readers into the chatroom, where identity often goes no deeper than a screenname and a borrowed photograph. But his young, upscale, and sexually uninhibited characters are more often found lounging in the cafes, bistros, and brewpubs of the Bay area." http://www.forewordmagazine.com/clarion/viewreviews.aspx?reviewID=241C. Dina of Script Viking wrote this about the book: "When I read this I thought of "Single White Female" and even "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle"--stories of how far our jealous and vengeful nature can take us if we allow it. On the whole, this novel has a gem of a psychological thriller in it." Check out Nicholas Bain's website:http://www.nicholasbain.com Contact Nicholas at:http://www.myspace.com/nicholasbain

Biografía del autor

Born in the mountains of rural Appalachia, Nicholas grew up in a small town in West Virginia. With five brothers and five sisters, he was the tenth of eleven children. "If you watched the Walton's," he says, "then you probably have an idea of my childhood life. I grew up in a loving family environment that was financially poor, but rich in love. We didn't have a lot, but we cherished what we had." As an undergraduate he was the Sports Editor for the college newspaper, and also the Editor for the college yearbook. Ultimately he chose a Business degree over a Journalism degree, but his passion for writing remained untouched. Armed with a BS in Business Administration, he embarked on a successful career and moved to Florida where he worked for a distributor, a non-profit agency for the developmentally disabled, and two entertainment companies. In 1996 he moved to San Francisco, where he currently resides. There he was the CFO for a software company and GM for a digital equipment distributor. It was also where he met his Ukrainian born wife Natasha. The Silicon Valley and his own interaction on the internet gave him the inspiration for his first novel. "My first friends in California were people who I originally met on the net," he says. "I found the internet to be a great way to interact and to explore the world around me. I use it for shopping, for dinner reservations, for map directions, for job searches, for music, and for keeping in touch with friends and family. I also saw the inherent potential for good and evil that plays out every day in the cyber-world, and it was that ambiguity that I decided to write about. What if someone used the internet to stalk a victim?"
