Always online . . . until they want you off. Permanently.

Just imagine . . . Hundreds of apps available at the blink of an eye: skills ranging from martial artist to concert pianist, streamed directly to your brain - also known as your 'Domain'.

Orphaned teen Porter Simms agrees to test an experimental technology developed by his late parents. But there's a major catch. He is permanently online, a device of the government, and every time he uses the skills, it takes a toll on his mind.

To make matters worse, an unseen enemy wants him taken offline - for good.

Porter must race to prevent a deadly catastrophe before he loses the most important thing - himself.

A new edge-of-your-seat adventure for fans of Anthony Horowitz and Eoin Colfer. Rohan grew up with a love of movies from his father, and listening to multicultural stories told by his mother, children's author Jamila Gavin. He became an English scholar at Exeter College, Oxford, then a fellow at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles, where he began his career as a screenwriter, adapting Crusoe for NBC and classic sci-fi novels like The Stars My Destination and Stainless Steel Rat for Twentieth Century Fox, before deciding to write books himself. An edge-of-your-seat tech thriller for teens from bestselling author Rohan Gavin. Rohan is the author of acclaimed father-son detective trilogy Knightley & Son, one of Kirkus' Best Books of 2014, the Sunday Times and Boston Globe Book of the Week, described by the Daily Mail as "a young Sherlock for our times". Books for teen boys are in high demand but low supply; there is a real need for action-packed adventures that bring the excitement of movies and cutting-edge tech to young readers. The author is well-connected and a confident, practised public speaker; he is ideal for bookshop events, school visits and book festivals. This book is perfect for fans of Anthony Horrowitz, Philip Reeve, Tom Hoyle, Ben Oliver and Karl Olsberg.
