What to expect

Twin brothers Ethan and Jack Stone have built the ultimate transparency app―Stalker―and it’s going to make them rich. But when Ethan’s girlfriend dumps him and his brother bails for their biggest competitor, Ethan is convinced they’ve run off together. Using Stalker to find out, he tracks them from Silicon Beach to Silicon Valley, and the secret it reveals is even more twisted than he imagined, forcing him to rethink everything he had believed regarding privacy, freedom, and trust. A poignant and timely novel, The Second Son deftly asks how far is too far when it comes to business, romance, and the integration of technology into every aspect of our lives.

Critics Review

“[A] cutting-edge thrill ride through Silicon Valley spawns from a spiderweb of dark family secrets. Weiss’ story is strikingly original, artfully mixing classic mystery themes with modern technology. A must-read for thriller fans.”

K. J. Howe, author of The Freedom Broker

“A techno thriller with a heart of gold…Weiss delivers more twists than Highway 1 through Big Sur. The fast-paced plot and interesting cast of characters make The Second Son the perfect beach read.”

S. W. Lauden, author of the Greg Salem punk rock PI series

“That rare novel that hooks you with the first line and never lets go…One of the best thrillers of the year!”

John Gilstrap, author of Scorpion Strike

“A riveting, cleverly plotted thriller for the modern age, The Second Son combines action, intrigue, and romance against the vivid backdrop of colorful California culture. Readers will keep turning the pages late into the night.”

A. J. Banner, author of The Twilight Wife
