Codename Hannah is more than a spy thriller. It's about an American Everyman who's also a brilliant computer coder caught in the crosshairs when he's acknowledged and hired to do a job critical to national security. Milo Caldwell crafts a translation of embedded code originating in the Middle East. A code that can save or doom millions of lives. Caldwell, an apolitical, largely apathetic man obsessed with the important work he's tapped for, faces every temptation possible. He does not fare well; greed, avarice, and sloth are the least of what hounds him. In the course of Codename Hannah, his moral center fractures. His abrasive, newfound wealth and privilege-unfortunately set in "The Biggest Little City in the World" where anything goes-first overwhelm him, then shake his core beliefs like the ripples of a pebble thrown into a pond. Acting out his base instincts, he runs the gamut of self-betrayal and finally questions his life and actions.
