My Thriller Idea


“Reset Code” Is a story about a young, talented programmer who hacks into business databases and gathers information to sell to their competitors.
Our main protagonist enjoys a well-paid and illeagal pass time, until his most recent endeavour, the hacking of a top-secret infomation database, leaves a virtual target drawn on his back.

Framed by his employer, warring "business" organisations are now hot on our main protagonist’s tail. The program hacked and ‘pulled’ by the main protagonist is code named “Project Upsilon”.

The data he unwittingly stole stretches all the way back to ties in the government, presenting a significant military security breach that could damage the world's diplomatic relations. This worst case scenario becomes  reality when the protagonist’s employer holds the country to randsom, threatening to use “Project Upsilon” should the government not meet their demands.

With an agreement gaining the assistance of a government he once stole from, The protagonist must find the company that betrayed him and his country, hacking them and implementing the “Reset Code”; a code of his own design that wipes clean data of his choosing and will return “Project Upsilon” back to its rightful owner.  

“Who wants me dead? Why was I framed? What is “Project Upsilon”? How do I stop them?”

Can the protagonist prevent the use of top-secret information and the resulting destabilisation of the worlds diplomatic relations? Failure could cost him everything, and turn a cyber war into real, physical conflict.
