Occupy Me by Tricia Sullivan
Tricia Sullivan returns to the genre with a page-turning, surreal high-concept science fiction that will define the conversation within the genre for years to come. Pearl is an angel. She works for the Resistance - an organization dedicated to improving the world by tiny, incremental acts of kindness. But Pearl also has wings. They blossom at moments of stress. And she is strong; an extraordinary, terrifying strength capable of breaking the fabric of reality. The Resistance can't account for that, nor for Pearl's mysterious origins. All anyone knows is that she appeared in a New York junkyard in the early 21st century. Truth is, Pearl doesn't really know what she is, let alone who she is. Now she is on a pell-mell chase across the world. In pursuit of a killer wearing another man's body. The killer carries a briefcase that is a ragged hole in the Universe. A global conspiracy revolves around it. The nature of reality is determined by it. Pearl's got to get the briefcase back - no matter how shocking its contents may turn out to be.

Sullivan (Maul, 2006) is writing high-concept mode here, much like Claire North and AdamRoberts; and, like them, she challenges the reader to follow a complex story and piece together a sense of aworld very different from ours through clues buried in the narrative. It can seem a daunting process; therewards are significant. Once readers throw themselves into the middle of the narrative, Sullivan's storybecomes an all-enveloping, mind-expanding experience. - Booklist Starred Review
