Product Details

Praise

“Mind-bending….A page-turner that also holds up in terms of its metaphysical conceit.”The Chicago Tribune

“Barry strives to paint equally compelling portraits of the two women and comes pretty darn close. Each character assumes a fully rounded and weighty resonance. . . Dynamic, suspenseful action with a light frosting of metaphysics.The Washington Post

“Mr. Barry avoids the obvious sci-fi option of thinking up lots of exciting worlds, and takes the grittier route of imagining intrusions into the underbelly of this one…Unnerving. He navigates the multiverse and the concepts of string theory and chaos theory with frightening conviction. Let’s hope he just made it all up.”The Wall Street Journal

“Sci-fi wizard Barry sets a serial killer loose in the multiverse with mind-bending results.”People

“Original, intelligent, unputdownable.”—The Guardian
 
“Beware Max Barry. Once his story grabs hold, you will forget to eat, sleep, and bathe until you’re left with the world’s worst book hangover. An exhilarating rocket shot of a thriller tempered with Barry’s trademark wit and warmth.”David Yoon, author of Version Zero and Frankly in Love

“Gripping… this is the sort of tricksiness Barry was put on Earth for.”—The Times (UK)

“With unrelenting tension, Max Barry weaves a complex tapestry where a sociopath’s insatiable obsession knows no bounds, not even time and space, and only two things are certain – he will kill her again because he’s killed her before. I devoured this novel in one sitting.”J.D. Barker, author of A Caller’s Game

“[Max Barry has] a penchant for existentialism, hard-driving plots, and uncomfortable philosophical speculation. . . Adds rich depth to an otherwise merely excellent crime drama.”—Pluralistic

“A crime thriller that tripped and fell through a manhole and into the multiverse. It’s frenetic and funny and gut-wrenching by turns, and I absolutely could not put it down. You need to read this book. Do it. Do it now.”Edward Ashton, author of The End of Ordinary

“A classic catch-the-stalker thriller…dynamic and intense.”—Books+Publishing
