Title: Red Team Blues by Cory Doctorow

Subtitle: A Martin Hench Novel

Why: I like his blog and saw this book recommended somewhere

Review:

Four stars. The main character Marty is a 67 year old forensic accountant who has spent his career breaking into financial systems for his clients. There is one gruesome scene early in the book, which is sometimes enough to make me drop a book, but fortunately the story didn’t go in that direction much. Doctorow does a great job with the cryptocurrency and modern technology aspects of the story, at least to my eye.

It was a fun read, and I’m looking forward to the other books in the series, especially the one that is set back in the 90s.
