“Action-packed, brilliantly unique” – Andy Weir, author of The Martian
When a mysterious phenomenon begins affecting people around the world, victims are overwhelmed by vivid memories of lives they never lived. What initially appears to be a disease soon reveals itself to be something far more extraordinary and dangerous.
As Detective Barry Sutton investigates the growing crisis in New York City, neuroscientist Helena Smith unknowingly holds the key to understanding the mystery and the means to stop it.
Together, they must confront forces that threaten not only individual lives but the very fabric of reality itself.
Combining high-concept science fiction with suspense, emotion, and unforgettable twists, Recursion is a gripping exploration of memory, time, loss, and human connection.
