**An Amazon Best Book of June 2019:**The mind-bending thrillers of Blake Crouch (Dark Matter, Pines) remind me of Michael Crichton at the top of his game, but peopled with more complex characters. After New York City detective Barry Sutton sees a woman jump off a ledge because shes a victim of FMSFalse Memory Syndromehe decides to track down her story of suddenly remembering a whole life she apparently lived instead of her real one. The strangest aspect of FMS is that friends and family of the afflicted also remember portions of the false lives. Motivated by a tragedy in his own past he wishes he could change, Sutton is determined to find out whether FMS is truly false or the gate to a new, better life. Alternate-reality stories are tough to maintain while suspending the readers disbelief, but Crouchs cinematic style makes every moment vibrant, suspenseful, and convincing as his heroes struggle to untangle an impossible solution.Adrian Liang, Amazon Book Review
Crouch isnt just a world-class thriller writer, hes a Philip K. Dick for the modern age. Recursion takes
mind-twisting premises and embeds them in a deeply emotional story
about time and loss and grief and most of all, the glory of the human
heart.Gregg Hurwitz, #1 internationally bestselling author of the Orphan X series
Cutting-edge science drives this intelligent, mind-bending thriller. .
. . Crouch effortlessly integrates sophisticated philosophical
conceptssuch as the relationship of human perceptions of what is real
to actual realityinto a complex and engrossing plot. Michael Crichtons
fans wont want to miss this one.Publishers Weekly(starred review)
An exciting, thought-provoking mind-bender . . . Returning to a few of the themes he explored in*Dark Matter,*Crouch
delivers a bullet-fast narrative and raises the stakes to a fever
pitch. A poignant love story is woven in with much food for thought on
grief and the nature of memories and how they shape us, rounding out
this twisty and terrifying thrill ride.Kirkus Reviews
