A child is kidnapped with consequences that extend across worlds...A writer reaches into the past to discover the truth about a possible murder...Far away a young woman prepares for her mysterious future...In a future scarred by fracking and ecological collapse, Jenna Hoolman's world is dominated by illegal smartdog racing: greyhounds genetically modified with human DNA. When her young niece goes missing that world implodes...Christy's life is dominated by fear of her brother, a man she knows capable of monstrous acts and suspects of hiding even darker ones. Desperate to learn the truth she contacts Alex, who has his own demons to fight...And Maree, a young woman undertaking a journey that will change her world forever.

Buy it!" Jeff Vandermeer, author of the Annihilation trilogy
