The Girlfriend Experience (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781970041095)

Matt Bugatti is a phenom. A PhD at nineteen, he could land a post at any university or think tank in the country. But that would be too easy--and safe.

Instead, Matt joins a team to build a top-secret supercomputer for the NSA, powerful enough to spy on millions. The schedule is tight and the workload is brutal. When his best friend suffers a tragedy, Matt is ready to give up, go home, and teach. Then one night Matt meets Gina Bianchi, and sparks fly. For the first time in Matt's life, all the puzzle pieces fit. Then Matt has a breakthrough to put the program back on track. Time to relax.

But not for long. Matt's discovery has attracted unwelcome attention: Chinese State Security has their eye on him, and now, Gina. When Gina disappears Matt goes into hiding, faced with a terrible choice: Betray his country, or lose the woman he loves...
