Items related to The Cassandra Virus
It's the near future. Computers are faster, cars run on fuel cells, and there's not much to do in the small town of Easter River if you're thirteen and not into team sports. Helen Chan-Fisher is happy enough trying singlehandedly to save the world's remaining amphibians from chytridiomycosis, but her friend Jordan O'Blenis is at a loose end. He may be a genius, but it seems like no matter what he tries to do, his robot-building older sister Cassie did it first. Then he has his great idea, an idea so great even Cassie hasn't done it. He'll write a programme for a virtual supercomputer, one that can live on the Web, and grow and spread and learn .... Jordan calls it Cassandra. Helen calls it a virus. Cassandra calls home...and when agents of the government security agency Bureau 6 try to seize her for their own purposes, it's up to Jordan and Helen to keep Cassandra from falling into the wrong hands.

Book Description:
Jordan and Helen must protect Cassandra from spies, evil administrators and the delete key.
From the Back Cover:
He had started getting strange e-mail. Creepy e-mail. The creepy bit was that it came in without any sender's address. It wasn't that the address was masked somehow; he was usually pretty good at tracing that sort of thing. There just wasn't one. This is the origin, the first one had said. You are Jordan O'Blenis. Good morning. The next one had said: Good afternoon, Jordan O'Blenis. Please respond. And they kept coming, two or three a day, all saying pretty much the same thing. It's summer vacation. Jordan is bored, so he writes a computer program that is guaranteed to banish boredom for the rest of the summer. Jordan and his friend Helen must figure out a way to keep Jordan's invention out of the hands of a sinister spy agency. But is there any way they can keep themselves out of trouble?
