Recenzii
A clever and multifaceted high-concept story with an engaging murder mystery at its core. Expect this to be one of 2021's biggest thrillers.
A tense and suspenseful race against time...this deftly plotted thriller will make you ruminate about the digital footprints we all leave behind and how they could ultimately define us in a world of ever-advancing technology.
An inventive and ingenious vision of things to come. From the explosive opening chapter to the surprise ending, Felicia Yap creates a troubling, all too plausible world. A thought-provoking, immersive novel packed with engaging characters.
[Future Perfect] is a high concept crime novel that speaks directly to the world unfolding around us . . . With a knowing nod to Minority Report, Yap delivers a twisty techno-thriller with a human heart.
A thought-provoking, twisty and emotional thriller that had me gripped from the first page.
Such a wonderful novel - beautifully written, incredibly tense, twists that I didn't see coming (and I pride myself on twist-spotting!) and frighteningly believable.
A touching, mesmerizing read ... really well plotted to derive the maximum tension and keeps you hooked right to the unexpected ending.
What if today was your last day ...
A bomb has exploded during a fashion show, killing a beautiful model on the catwalk. The murderer is still at large . . . and he may strike again. Yet this is the least of Police Commissioner Christian Verger's worries. His fiancée Viola has left him. He has to keep his tumultuous past a secret. To make things worse, his voice assistant Alexa is 99.74% sure he will die tomorrow.
Moving from snowy 1980s Montana to chic 1990s Manhattan to a drone-filled 2030s Britain, FUTURE PERFECT is an electrifying race to solve a murder before it's too late. Yet it is also a love story, a riveting portrait of a couple torn apart by secrets, grief and guilt. A twisted tale of how the past can haunt a person's future and be used to predict if he will die . . . or kill.
