Helena is a young scientist with a mother suffering from Alzheimer’s and a passion to help save her mother’s memories. She doesn’t have the time or the funding to make her breakthrough a reality until a men shows up with an offer too good to refuse.
Barry, a New York cop, shows up at the scene of a potential suicide. The woman appears to be suffering from “False Memory Syndrome”, a new medical phenomenon. What the woman says before she jumps to her death piques Barry’s interest…and down the rabbit hole he goes.
What would you do for a chance to go back, to do over, to fix things before they ever became broken. What happens when what you do for love brings you to dark places?
The book is an interesting take on the ability live a “do-over”. The wrinkle is that changing your own reality leaves shadows of old memories and changing your reality changes reality for everyone.
Timeline on timeline and twist upon twist made the book read like a GIANT sci-fi action movie. There I some beautiful writing here, some great ethical questions and some far above my head science.
This is a mind-bender of a suspenseful sci-fi. This is no beach read; your brain will be in overdrive.
Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.
