On a small Caribbean island a woman joins the newest reality TV show:
24/7. For Dana Kirsten, winning the $2 million prize could mean saving
her child's life. But while the country is watching her every move, Dana
is entering a fight for her own life - and a conflict that will shake
the world... Vassa Island has been rigged with remote control cameras, a
surveillance satellite system, and the most powerful television
transmitter ever created. And that's not all. For a small fee, anyone
with a computer can access any of the 638 cameras live, twenty-four
hours a day, seven days a week - and vote as twelve carefully chosen
contestants struggle with each other and the island. But only fifteen
minutes into the first live broadcast, the show's host and crew die a
ghastly death. The shell-shocked contestants hear a voice echoing from
hidden speakers: "I am Control, and this has just become the ultimate
reality show." Suddenly the voice is hurtling contestants through a maze
of traps and macabre, individually designed puzzles. And when the
worldwide audience votes one person off the island, it isn't just a
loss... it's death. With every day unveiling a new terror, and as one
man from the outside races to crack the Vassa mystery, the only real way
to win 24/7 is to find Control. And stop him. But Control has plans
beyond the desert island, spinning a dark plot that could hold the
entire world hostage in a grip of death.
