Description
A gripping near-future thriller from the author of False Hearts. She can uncover the truth, if she defeats her demons. Ex-neuroscientist Carina struggles with a drug problem, her conscience, and urges to kill. She satisfies her cravings in dreams, fuelled by the addictive drug 'Zeal'. Now she's heading for self-destruction - until she has a vision of a dead girl. Sudice Inc. damaged Carina when she worked on their sinister brain-mapping project, causing her violent compulsions. And this girl was a similar experiment. When Carina realizes the vision was planted by her old colleague Mark, desperate for help to expose the company, she knows he's probably dead. Her only hope is to unmask her nemesis - or she's next. To unlock the secrets Mark hid in her mind, she'll need a group of specialist hackers. Dax is one of them, a doctor who can help Carina fight her addictions. If she holds on to her humanity, they might even have a future together. But first she must destroy her adversary - before it changes us and our society, forever. PRAISE FOR FALSE HEARTS "A strong debut from someone who's clearly got what it takes" Peter F. Hamilton "That rarest of things - a fast-paced thriller with tons of heart and soul. Set in a chillingly believable future, it's bursting with original concepts and unforgettable characters. I defy anyone to put it down" Sarah Lotz "An intriguing and fast-paced tale" Heat "A rich and entertaining sci-fi tale that is brimming with ideas" SciFiNow "Its vision of the future is seductively terrifying" SFX
