It's a riveting, emotionally gripping high-tech thriller that probes ancient secrets, near-future technologies, and the bonds between a 10-year-old girl and her dad in the aftermath of a family tragedy.

Amazon’s army of bots routinely removes reviews unless the reviewer purchases the title, so I’m happy to reimburse you the cost of the purchase in return for an honest review! (The final version is the same as the ARC, except for errors that have been corrected and a new Fact vs. fiction section.)

Early testimonials have been overwhelmingly positive — see below. If you would prefer the paperback version, that goes live on Thursday too. Questions? Just ask! 

Big week ahead all the way around, no? :~)

Thanks as always!

JD

PS — I’ll send a follow-up email on Thursday with instructions on how to how to leave a review.

Note: On the off chance you didn’t like it, please hold off for a week or two so that the book has a chance in a very competitive environment.
