"In a Utopian twenty-third-century New York City, where corporations have replaced governments, AI dictates culture, and citizens are free to people-watch any other citizen they choose through an app. This horror-laden Sci-Fi Thriller follows four mis-matched coeds as they attempt to solve the murder of an eccentric parascientist. Only someone or some thing able to navigate outside the highest levels of crowd-sourced surveillance could get away with murder in this town. If the team can't work quickly to solve the case, New York will be devoured by a dark plague the eccentric had been working on prior to his death, a plague which, overtime, appears to be developing sentience"-- "A half-bot, an empath, a punk and a god walk into a twenty-third century bar. The four team up in attempts to uncover who murdered their esteemed science professor dark research. The four headstrong misfits must overcome their own inner demons and move quickly to nab the culprit, as whoever has taken Ferguson's research is unleashing the doctor's synthetic plagues onto New York City. Humans and hybrids alike are going feral and eagerly infecting others with their newfound agony. If they don't work quickly to solve this threat, New York City will be devoured by this plague which, overtime, appears to be developing sentience."--… (més)

The concept of this book was an intriguing one and I started enjoying it when it picked up. It definitely had some interesting ideas. But overall, it was just okay. But don't let this dissuade you! Some of the aspects I disliked (like the random sexual violence - yeah it becomes a part of the plot but I still hate it. I actually ended up skimming these parts because it was uncomfortable to read about) won't bother other readers so I still say pick it up if it sounds good to you!

I love a book that introduces the world naturally but I do think the start could maybe have used a but more direct worldbuilding to set the stage a little more firmly. I was a little confused about some aspects, but they did largely get cleared up.

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. As always, all opinions are my own. ( )

The future this book paints is horrifying in itself, add in a mysterious murder when it should be impossible to kill undetected, a possible plague on the side, and you have the perfect mix for full body chills. Lachi has done an amazing job of bringing this dystopian world to life around the reader, and dropping in believable characters (even if they live in a much different time from our own). The story itself is engaging, and has a lot of depth to it. You’ll be just as caught up in the mystery as exploring the world, and it’ll be hard to stop reading once you start. ( )
