Summary

Computer expert Martin Bishop heads a team of renegade hackers--including a former CIA employee, a gadgets wizard, a young genius, and a blind soundman--who are routinely hired to test security systems. When government agents blackmail the "sneakers" into carrying out a covert mission of tracking down a top-secret black box, Bishop's team find themselves embroiled in a dangerous operation. Along with his former girlfriend, they make a stunning discovery--the device has the capability to decode all existing encryption systems around the world. With factions from all sides willing to murder for the box, Bishop and his team embark on their most dangerous assignment ever.
