Daniel has returned from an anti-poaching operation, to find that he has been selected as a personality profile test subject in microchip implantation trials being run by the banks, for a coming cashless society, he does not consent to the chip and makes a run for it , he is falsely accused of trying to Rob the bank. Agent Perkins has been sent to catch a bank robber before the word gets out to the general populace, the triads want their Rhino horn back, the bankster's are trying to rule the world by getting everyone micro-chipped, the triads, looking to recover the Rhino horn come across the microchip technology, realising the potential for control they think this technology will do well in China and try to steal it, the bankers mobilise a contract killer to safe guard their interests. Daniel must protect what is valuable to him.

This is the life of a giant of the high-tech industry - co-founder of Fairchild Semiconductor and Intel - and inventor of the integrated circuit, which is used in every modern computer, microwave, telephone and car.

Barely fifty years ago a computer was a gargantuan, vastly expensive thing that only a handful of scientists had ever seen. The world’s brightest engineers were stymied in their quest to make these machines small and affordable until the solution finally came from two ingenious young Americans. Jack Kilby and Robert Noyce hit upon the stunning discovery that would make possible the silicon microchip, a work that would ultimately earn Kilby the Nobel Prize for physics in 2000. In this completely revised and updated edition of The Chip, T.R. Reid tells the gripping adventure story of their invention and of its growth into a global information industry. This is the story of how the digital age began.

The New World Order Bank has full control of all man's affairs. The Governor maintains control through a series of "Fear-Permutator" Clones, whose single task it is to bring order to a post-nuclear society. The Clones led by Colonel Geiring are programmed to destroy enemies of the new social order. The nightmare squad of Clones is permitted to kill " undesirable" citizens within the rules of a legalized killing game called Multiple Murdering. The New World Order Bank does not have to give a reason to target any citizen it chooses.

The first years of the company that developed the microchip and created the model for a successful Silicon Valley start-up. In the first three and a half years of its existence, Fairchild Semiconductor developed, produced, and marketed the device that would become the fundamental building block of the digital world: the microchip. Founded in 1957 by eight former employees of the Schockley Semiconductor Laboratory, Fairchild created the model for a successful Silicon Valley start-up: intense activity with a common goal, close collaboration, and a quick path to the market (Fairchild's first device hit the market just ten months after the company's founding). Fairchild Semiconductor was one of the first companies financed by venture capital, and its success inspired the establishment of venture capital firms in the San Francisco Bay area. These firms would finance the explosive growth of Silicon Valley over the next several decades. This history of the early years of Fairchild Semiconductor examines the technological, business, and social dynamics behind its innovative products. The centerpiece of the book is a collection of documents, reproduced in facsimile, including the company's first prospectus; ideas, sketches, and plans for the company's products; and a notebook kept by cofounder Jay Last that records problems, schedules, and tasks discussed at weekly meetings. A historical overview, interpretive essays, and an introduction to semiconductor technology in the period accompany these primary documents.
