Ralph Gibsen isn't your typical spy. The befuddled venture capitalist is compelled to chart his own course on a global quest to save his new brain-computer interface tool from falling into some very, very wrong hands. "Fans of Neal Stephenson's opus, Cryptonomicon, will thrill to Craig Vachon's new expose of the wild west of our digital era. As Stephenson introduced us to the beginnings of this era, Vachon's adventure recounts peak Silicon Valley. Vachon's protagonist, Ralph, glides into and out of a series of fantastic predicaments that might be less fictitious than we think. This adventure is a good one, and you'll enjoy every minute of it."- Michael Gilligan, President of Seek Common Ground "This novel's topic is so important: We stand in the middle of a storm-not just a geopolitical one, but a cyberpolitical one. It feels as if no one trusts anyone any more, and suspicion and confusion reign across our delicate cyberworld. Which way do we turn?"-Eugene Kaspersky, Hacker Hunter and Chairman, Kaspersky Labs "Knucklehead" is a great, eye-opening read. Vachon weaves a story that is both impossible to believe and impossible to ignore-It is ridiculously funny and frighteningly real. Be prepared to learn, to laugh and yes, to worry about what's happening behind the cyber world curtain."-Rick Roth, Global CEO, Ogilvy Action "It's all too rare to find a fun, seat-of-your-pants, literary romp like this. I got wonderfully lost with Ralph in the many cultures as he travels around the planet. And kudos for the author in the entertaining explanation of how investors examine entrepreneurial ventures for investment. As an investor myself, a lot of the anecdotes and stories resonated with me... wonderful reading."-Raz Zia, former MD at Goldman Sachs and MD at Aldrich Capital
