Strap yourself in. Who is the judge of all our sins, when you look at the mirror and you see someone else? Who is innocent and who is guilty? Can you really judge?
And more importantly, can the dead rise again?
When bodies of predatory criminals keep turning up under suspicious circumstances, Detective Ashley Tate and her team know they are dealing with a serial killer.
But what links the crimes? Each victim’s resurrection.
How can someone die on Monday yet be walking and talking on Friday?
As Ashley’s ex-girlfriend and journalist Jude Abrahams whips up public approval for the apparent vigilante murders, the pressure on Ashley builds, but with more questions than answers, each case becomes stranger.
Dare they believe what they are seeing?
In this fast-paced, science fiction lesbian thriller, no one and nothing is quite as it seems. Within a tangled web of love, sex, power, and deceit, the truth is far stranger and more sinister than any of them could have ever believed possible.
Reviews
Thriller/enhanced human brilliance! I started reading this book on my flight out to begin my holiday and for once I was grateful for the amount of time we were in the air as it meant I could keep reading to the end! I just couldn’t put it down. The main characters are far from perfect but despite their flaws you can’t help but root for them and just when you think you have things figured out Ruby adds a twist or turn that takes you down a different path to the one you were expecting and makes you shake your head in awe at the brilliance of her writing. The storyline is so clever and engaging and the ending?!?! I am just so glad I had the next one in the series ready to start straight away! Just fantastic 😍
Absolutely Fantastic Wow, I powered through this book absolutely desperate to find out what happens next. The characters are all very different and flawed in their own ways and it’s intriguing to witness their interactions whilst waiting for everything to fall apart. Even when it does, there’s another twist and I just loved it from start to end, so much so that I bought and read book 2 before writing my review!! Even if you think this might not be for you because of the genre, all I can suggest is to keep an open mind and “take a look inside” or download the sample. Sometimes the way an author writes can change your mind. Sci-fi is not normally my go to genre but I would definitely reconsider after reading both of these books 💯👏🏻 well done Ruby Scott
