"I love you. In every world." Young real estate agent Madison May is shocked when a client at an open house says these words to her. The man, a stranger, seems to know far too much about her, and professes his love - shortly before he murders her. Felicity Staples hates reporting on murders. As a journalist for a mid-size New York City paper, she knows she must take on the assignment to research Madison Mays shocking murder, but the crime seems random and the suspect is in the wind. That is, until Felicity spots the killer on the subway, right before he vanishes. Soon, Felicity senses her entire universe has shifted. No one remembers Madison May, or Felicitys encounter with the mysterious man. And her cat is missing. Felicity realizes that in her pursuit of Madisons killer, she followed him into a different dimension - one where everything about her existence is slightly altered. At first, she is determined to return to the reality she knows, but when Madison May - in this world, a struggling actress - is murdered again, Felicity decides she must find the killer - and learns that she is not the only one hunting him. Traveling through different realities, Felicity uncovers the opportunity - and danger - of living more than one life.

I devoured this novel in one sitting * J.D. Barker, author of A Callers Game *Original, intelligent, unputdownable * The Guardian *Gripping . . . this is the sort of tricksiness Barry was put on Earth for * The Times *A very enjoyable thriller with a very satisfying ending * Mystery and Suspense Magazine *There are the familiar dislocations and dilemmas of a quest that flings its characters across separate but related realities, but these are seasoned with the wit, menace and pacy excitement of a nicely controlled, neatly structured crime thriller * ParSec Magazine *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 * 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. Lets hope he just made it all up * Wall Street Journal *Sci-fi wizard Barry sets a serial killer loose in the multiverse with mind-bending results * People *Beware Max Barry. Once his story grabs hold, you will forget to eat, sleep, and bathe until youre left with the worlds worst book hangover. An exhilarating rocket shot of a thriller tempered with Barrys trademark wit and warmth * David Yoon, author of Version Zero and Frankly in Love * Details ISBN1529352096 Publisher Hodder & Stoughton ISBN-10 1529352096 ISBN-13 9781529352092 Format Hardcover Author Max Barry Year 2021 Publication Date 2021-07-08 Pages 336 UK Release Date 2021-07-08 Imprint Hodder & Stoughton Country of Publication United Kingdom AU Release Date 2021-07-08 NZ Release Date 2021-07-08 Subtitle A gripping speculative psychological suspense DEWEY 823.92 Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
