Description:
Deep in the heart of the dot.com revolution where fortunes and lives are made with the click of a mouse, internet visionary John Elias dream of creating the internet application that will change the way mankind communicates. No borders, no boundaries . . . one world. With a little old-fashioned good luck, the help of an expert deal-closer, and a wealthy financier, John finds the necessary funding to launch Digital Dreams. Just as quickly as their first million is made, their good intention is replaced by the intoxicating success of fame and fortune, fast cars, and faster women. Caught in a spiral of deceit, John soon loses sight of his original vision and betrays his girlfriend. Now, John finds himself forced to betray everything he once held dear or risk losing it all. Will blind ambition topple his dot.com empire? Or will his one last shot at redemption bring him back to what's really important in life?
