 d.\nDead Money is a mystery/thriller set in Silicon Valley. Trevor Canon\,
  the CEO of the hottest Silicon Valley startup\, Journy\, is found murdere
 d in his office. Canon\, who feared such a possibility\, had changed his w
 ill to include a “dead money” clause\, specifying that\, in the event 
 of his murder\, his $20 billion in company stock will remain frozen until 
 his murder is solved.\nEnter Mackenzie Clyde\, the investigator and troubl
 eshooter for Roger Hammersmith\, a ruthless venture capitalist who has sun
 k $5.2 billion in Journy and now wants–make that needs–his money back.
  Hammersmith expects Clyde to work with the F.B.I. to solve Canon’s murd
 er quickly. Clyde\, all 6’2” of her\, is tough\, shrewd and resourcefu
 l\, qualities she honed during a difficult childhood. Now using her street
  smarts\, brash confidence and ability to read people\, Clyde pushes her w
 ay to a surprising\, yet satisfying\, conclusion.\nIn “Dead Money\,” K
 err draws on his experiences in the tech world to create a novel that is f
 illed with dead ends\, plot twists and Silicon Valley “types” that are
  recognizable and often very funny. Kerr\, who spent fifteen years as a la
 wyer and communication executive in the San Francisco tech industry\, was 
 one of the first employees at Airbnb. He currently lives with his family i
 n Seattle.
