THE ADVENTURES OF VERA CODE, LADY INFORMATIONALIST

A series focusing on the tales of Vera Code, a 18th century lady adventurer, two-fisted journalist, and cryptologist, as she travels around the New England area. Each book focuses on a form of old-timey security or information-based fraud, using parallels from old style examples of wire fraud and bookkeeping manipulation to show parallels to existing digital issues with how we calculate trust and corruption. Deliberate aims are used to show the plasticity of information and she regularly references founding her own company to pursue these aims when she’s raised enough reward money. Then there’s a sword fight or a buggy race.
