NOTES

Action and intelligence at the cutting edge of politics, terrorism, extortion and technology realism. Off the Algo is a classic action thriller interweaving a rich assortment of personalities at the cutting edge of politics, terrorism, extortion and technology realism. John Gabriel has - for now - outmaneuvered the politicians trying to stop his enigmatic drone fleet, but a quandary arises when a love interest from his distant past re-enters his life in parallel with the appearance of an alluring operative trying to recruit him to prevent a war. John navigates the very personal dilemma while assembling an unconventional commando team that battles intractable thugs and psychopaths who are beyond the reach of governments.
