There is a deep warning in Adapt, at least for the one who is willing to pay attention. Edward Freeland has written a thriller that can hardly go unnoticed. When Daniel first noticed that his actions were being tracked and that something fishy was going on related to his internet and his cell phone, he thought nothing of it and continued on with his normal, happy life. The Christmas holiday brought back his fondest family memories and he was beginning to feel like he was at his very best. Things suddenly started to go wrong. It first started with subtle responses and giggles and then gradually began to advance until he was certain that someone was tapping into his phone and computer; however, he had no tangible evidence to prove his claim. Before he knew what was happening, he had been manipulated into a deadly game that threatened to take his life. The only chance that Daniel has of surviving the assault on his psyche is to adapt and not allow it to overtake him. But has it already gone too far? Will Daniel have enough strength to outlast the assault?
The reader who walks away from Adapt by Edward Freeland without a deep, gut-wrenching feeling in the pit of their stomach or a profound anger at those in positions of trust who have misused their trust in a destructive manner, simply did not understand the full impact of this story. Alive with suspense and a fear that no one, including Daniel, could outlast the well oiled assault on him, O'Reilly keeps the reader on the edge of their seat and that uncomfortable stirring in their gut. The blind trust that is placed in those of the medical and psychiatric practices, as well as the media, make the sort of things that happen to Daniel a very realistic possibility. Suspenseful, tragic, and steeped in a cold reality, Adapt is a powerful reminder that the electronic age and evil men are able to manipulate behind the cloak of the public trust that has been given to them.
