Imaginative, totally preposterous and I absolutely loved every word ! Friday might be gifted with an enquiring mind but at CommTECH she's just another faceless drone. That all changes when she accidentally sees and overhears a secret meeting. In a future were technology means Friday has a chip implanted in her brain that records everything she experiences this puts her life in danger but Friday has a plan. First she takes a poison that prevents her chip being tracked and then she seeks out a deadly smuggler to help her get away and find the antidote. Trouble is Striker isn't what Friday expected and he's about to show her just how dangerous being on the run really is !
I had absolutely no idea what to expect from this new to be author but was instantly pulled in by this book. The chemistry pulsating off the page and the almost dystopian atmosphere just added to the tension as the couple faced a journey like no other. Yes its futuristic, yes there's an almost supernatural edge at times but it's the humour that makes this stand out. Oh who am I kidding because I want a Striker of my own and I loved that he could understand Friday and her idiosyncrasies. Plus there's a supporting cast of characters that need their own happy ever after and if anyone can give them a story to remember it's clearly this author.
This voluntary take is of an advance copy I requested from Netgalley and my thoughts and comments are honest and I believe fair.
