About this listen

A hacked satellite. A mysterious signal. A government cover-up.

While cleaning out his late father’s research notes, amateur astronomer Elliot Bishop discovers a mysterious signal coming from an old communications satellite. With the help of his best friend Jake, and a zero-trust hacker named LiLo, he tries to uncover the truth.

What they find will change the world. But their discovery also pulls them into a world of surveillance and espionage that threatens not only their lives, but humanity itself. With international governments and shadow organizations watching their every move, what hope do three civilians have at preventing a cyber world war?

Host is a propulsive technothriller that asks how far ordinary people will go to stop a cyber world war. WarGames meets Three Days of the Condor—set in today’s hyper-connected world.
