She can uncover the truth, if she defeats her demons Ex-neuroscientist Carina struggles with a drug problem, her conscience, and urges to kill. She satisfies her cravings in dreams, fuelled by the addictive drug ‘Zeal’. Now she’s heading for self-destruction – until she has a vision of a dead girl. Sudice Inc. damaged Carina when she worked on their sinister brain-mapping project, causing her violent compulsions. And this girl was a similar experiment. When Carina realizes the vision was planted by her old colleague Mark, desperate for help to expose the company, she knows he’s probably dead. Her only hope is to unmask her nemesis – or she’s next. To unlock the secrets Mark hid in her mind, she’ll need a group of specialist hackers. Dax is one of them, a doctor who can help Carina fight her addictions. If she holds on to her humanity, they might even have a future together. But first she must destroy her adversary – before it changes us and our society, forever.

0This was a great follow up to False Hearts!
I really enjoy this world that Lam has created and how advanced the tech is. I like that she introduces flawed main characters who have depth and growth throughout the novel. Even the secondary characters have backstory and depth, and I really grew to like them. I enjoyed how she wove the story together and had characters from the previous novel involved and how it all connected.
I liked the discussion on violence and whether it's nature vs. nurture or a combination of both. How people can be manipulated and changed due to the tech and greed involved in research and being the best. The discussion on human nature and just how people can justify their actions was great too.
I really hope there are more books in this world coming soon.
