HOW WAS A MAN KILLED WHILE ALONE IN A LOCKED ROOM? IS IT THE PERFECT MURDER?
It’s a case for FBI Special Agent Rose Blake. Still raw after a notorious serial killer slipped through her net, Rose will do whatever it takes – including putting her own life at risk – to nail the perpetrator this time.
When a second body with identical wounds is discovered, Rose realises that a twisted murderer is playing a deadly game. A murderer who’s not going to stop any time soon. But what links the victims? And who’s next? No one is safe, and the clock is ticking…

What starts as a gripping killer thriller morphs into a serious and frankly scary examination of the possible threats the development of AI poses for humanity
If Stephen King had collaborated with Michael Crichton on a thriller, it might have been as good as this. It's a grab-you-by-the-throat page-ripper'
Grips you from the beginning and races to a most exciting and enigmatic ending
An edgy, pacy, futuristic and oh so very polished cyber thriller
