Hey everyone!
I've been brooding over a new story idea I had. It's about the world twenty years from now where all the cities are controlled by a central operating system. Everything in them is linked: from electricity to people's personal details. This new system claims to be safe but can be, as with any computer system, be hacked into. Enter Damion Grey, the protagonist. Sixteen years of age at the start of the novel is a budding hacker who has been taught to exploit the system by his tutor for good. His tutor however has attracted the attention of one of the cities gang's for his for hire hacker jobs against them and orders an attack on his family. Damion happens to hear the phone conversation using certain programs he uses (don't want to go into detail here, I know the specifics) but has not learnt enough yet to stop them. He calls the police and runs over in an attempt to stop them but is not quick enough. The tutor's family including Damion's girlfriend (Lauren Stoke) were all killed. No action is taken against the gang by the police. Damion swears to continue learning how to use the system to bring down the gang that did that and help people in the city and bring down corruption in the law. The rest of the story continues a year later.
So basically I need opinions on this story idea. I am aware of the research that will need to be done for this topic and not all of it will be realistic.
Thanks,
