Scorpion Summary

Scorpion by Christian Cantrell

THE GRIPPING CAT-AND-MOUSE THRILLER, PERFECT FOR FANS OF MINORITY REPORT AND BLAKE CROUCH

'Will have you on the edge of your seat' SUNDAY EXPRESS
'An mind-blowing speculative techno thriller with a killer twist!' DIANE JEFFREY
_________

All over the world, random people are being brutally assassinated.

Each death is unique, but they all have one thing in common: four numbers branded or carved into the victims' flesh.

What does it mean?

For the brilliant and haunted CIA analyst Quinn Mitchell, it means leaving a safe and predictable desk job as she tries to track down a global serial killer.

What she doesn't know is that nothing about this mission - her handlers, the intelligence, even the laws of cause and effect - can be trusted.

And her target has saved his most shocking murder for last . . .

The plot is intriguing and twisty, and Cantrell has a compelling narrative style. A fast-paced near future thriller that will mess with your head -- James Oswald
Written with a unique blend of vim and wit, Scorpion is a cat-and-mouse, edge-of-your-seat, mind-blowing speculative techno thriller with a killer twist! -- Diane Jeffrey, bestselling author of The Guilty Mother
This stunning near-future thriller takes some truly breathtaking turns... * Publishers Weekly *
[Scorpion] takes place in an only slightly futuristic world that snaps and bristles with technological capabilities that may seem distant or improbable but which are in fact just around the corner. There's snappy dialogue, sharp observation, and compelling characters in Quinn, Ranveer, and Henrietta; the technology sings, the physics is plausibly presented, and the suggestion of time travel fascinates. A fast, fun, and intelligent SF thriller. * Kirkus (*starred review*) *
An exceptional, fast-paced thriller featuring a tech-empowered assassin whose pattern and objective you've never seen before, chased by a heroine with tenacious grit -- David Brin
A gripping real-world espionage thriller . . . Cantrell's worldbuilding is spot-on. It's enough to keep you guessing all the way up to an ending few will predict * SFX *
This stunning debut thriller will have you on the edge of your seat * OK! *
