The Kidnapping of Alice Ingold

The Kidnapping of Alice Ingold dominates the news. She’s blond, beautiful, and the daughter of socialite Catherine and AI tech guru Brian. Even more interesting is the fact that the kidnappers are not asking for a ransom. Instead, they pose riddles, inviting everyone to solve them to save Alice. As the search goes on, Catherine and Brian begin to realize what’s really going on, and things are more complex than they seem. The real question is, what exactly are they saving Alice from? ||I’ve read many of Holahan’s books, and this one was by far her most relevant book to the times we’re currently living in. While it wasn’t the most thrilling, especially compared to her other books, this story definitely gets you thinking about the role of AI in America and the impact it will have on society. There are many points made in this tale about how many jobs could become obsolete with the unregulated use of AI. If you enjoy thrillers, maybe choose one of her other books, but if you enjoy getting conversations started about technological advancements, then this is a great place to start.
