Bryce Anderson

[close] Bryce Anderson is the protagonist in the science fiction novel THE ANALYST, which is the first story in The Chicago Democratic Convention 2020 series. Bryce's Six Sense Cranial Implant - a device that has been surgically attached to his brain - is hacked into by The Hacker (A.K.A CBX), who is then able to see what he sees, and hear what he hears. This invasion of privacy is possible because the implant grants Bryce 24/7 access to the Internet, making him able to surf the web, send texts, and email with his mind. Bryce is one of the six hundred people participating in the clinical trial of this experimental technology, which was developed by the company Six Sense International. This group has affectionately dubbed their augmented reality 'the Six'.

Bryce has a condition that makes personal interactions difficult for him. This is apparent when he meets the beautiful chairwomen of one of the Democratic Convention's planning committees, Vanessa Stanton. Bryce has had this condition since childhood, and so he relies on the coaching he received for many years from his mother, Carol Anderson.
