    About this audiobook

    iMe NOTICE—TO ALL NEW ADULTS

    Your compulsory iMe implant will be performed by your fourteenth birthday when you become an adult.

    Your iMe will track and save your location to keep you safe and remove crime.

    It's integrated health monitoring diagnoses issues early to provide you with the best possible care.

    Combined with iMe's tailored diet and fitness programs — you are always at your best.

    Your consumption is optimal, your waste is negligible — better for you, better for the environment.

    iMe — enabling a better you.

    In the world of iMe, you can’t get away with anything. Least of all murder.

    DI Clive Lussac has forgotten how to do his job. Ten years of embedded technology — ‘iMe’ — has led to complete control and the eradication of crime.

    Then the impossible happens. A body is found, and the killer is untraceable.

    With new partner Zoe Jordan, Clive must re-sharpen his detective skills and find the killer without technology, before time runs out for the next victim…

      Terrific story, very well written and narrated. I plan to read the sequel and any other books by this author. I fear our future does hold what some of the author has predicted here. Covid has certainly proven governments want to control our every action for our own or the greater good (very 1984). The one part I thought was really funny (SPOILER ALERT) was Facebook was no longer used. Can't say I am a fan of Facebook, it has its good uses but it also has negative uses as well. Anyway, thumbs up to this author for a great story. I really couldn't figure out who "Thief" was until almost right before it was revealed. It is very rare I don't see the twist or big reveal coming, this book kept me guessing.
