NASHVILLE, Tenn. - s4story -- Hylbert's electrifying debut explores the dark possibilities of the app economy as a start-up tech corporation begins using its app to help the government spy on users.

Task Lyst follows Elliott, a struggling musician who sees the app as an opportunity to make ends meet while chasing his music dream until his tasks become more and more questionable. Meanwhile, Alice, a young and once-promising Silicon Valley tech executive on the edge of losing her job, must decide whether or not to invest in the Task Lyst app and risk enormous legal liability—and huge financial reward.

Cinematic and fast-paced, fans of Black Mirror, Silicon Valley, and The Romanoffs limited series will stay on the edge of their seats throughout Task Lyst. Click here to learn more and buy the book– http://www.tasklystbook.com

SCOTT HYLBERT spent most of his youth surfing in San Diego before attending Denison University in Ohio to play soccer. Amidst a stalled-career as a rock-n-roller in San Francisco, he packaged spring break tours and ski trips for students before finding a niche in the alternative newsweekly business. There, he sold advertising to concert promoters and record companies for over a decade before enrolling in a masters program at Vanderbilt University while continuing to work and raise two kids. With a focus on creative writing, he pursued a career-long goal to pivot from the marketing side of the media business to the editorial. Recently, with his photographer wife Ashley, he opened a rental photography studio and boutique event space in Nashville called White Avenue Studio.
