When someone hacks into the systems of eight self-drive cars, their passengers are set on a fatal collision course.
The passengers are: a TV star, a pregnant young woman, a disabled war hero, an abused wife fleeing her husband, an illegal immigrant, a husband and wife – and parents of two – who are travelling in separate vehicles and a suicidal man. Now the public have to judge who should survive but are the passengers all that they first seem?
This was by far the most entertaining book I’ve read this year as far as exhilarating reading experiences go.
I found it almost impossible to put down once I’d picked it up, John Marrs is a master at ending pages not on a cliffhanger necessarily but with words that make you sound out the war cry of book worms around the globe – JUST ONE MORE CHAPTER…
The concept is very cool – automated vehicles gone rogue, passengers in peril, the world watching via social media and a raggle taggle set of characters all with their own agenda’s some good some evil…
Lots of twists and turns, a thought provoking imaginary future and political and personal shenanigans that are still more sensible than Brexit and you have a sure fire winner on your hands.
Oh and s*** blows up too. Awesome.
Highly Recommended.
