Plot Summary of Breaking Point - Net Force 4
"This book is about a scientist who develops a way to use a low frequency ray to mess with the minds of people all over the world. The director of Net Force must do all that he can to stop him from using this powerful tool, or selling it to the chinese. It doesn't help that the scientist has hired a super body guard who is as good at his job as the Net Force agents are at theirs. A great read, one of the best in the series."
Manata, Resident Scholar
