Mackenzie’s hands shook.
“What’s going on, Mackenzie?” Terra asked.
“Someone hacked her car.”
“But what can the hacker really do?”
“Microprocessors control practically everything in modern vehicles. He could accelerate. He could disable the brakes. Use your imagination.”

Mackenzie waited while Alex accelerated until they found the main road Nora said she was near.
“It’s not a self-driving car. So it’s not like he could take over her steering wheel, right?” Alex tried to sound reassuring.
“He could change the destination of the GPS and control the vehicle that way. So, yes, the vehicle would seem to have a life of its own.”
“Mackenzie!” Terra came back on the line, her voice excited.
“Jack found her car.”
“Oh, thank goodness! Where?”
“On Old Camp Road, almost a half a mile from the main road.” Mackenzie repeated the words so Alex could hear.
“But she’s not there.”
