Reviews
Wilk’s of-the-moment, occasionally paranoid medical thriller explores the fascinating intersection between cutting-edge science and moral complexity, as a cold, corporate future collides with the sincere and simple lives of a rural American family. William and Olivia are an ordinary couple wrestling with familiar problems as William's farm struggles to turn a profit. William is offered a lucrative position with Haloderm, a biomedical corporation, which seems like the solution to all their problems. However, as people go missing and fentanyl overdose cases linked to organ transplants rise, the question becomes: is William's salvation too good to be true, or is something far more sinister at play? At Haloderm, William encounters a world that Wilk makes both wondrous and plausible—robots performing minimally invasive surgeries with flawless precision, AI systems that serve coffee and provide security forces while perfectly mimicking human voices, and revolutionary processes that transform cadavers into life-saving medical products.
Readers will not be surprised to discover that Haloderm has dark secrets. As the financial relief helps heal their marriage, and Olivia explores breeding “designer” dogs, William protects a young woman from assault and begins questioning Haloderm's carefully constructed facade. Ultimately, William must confront the terrifying possibility that the very company that saved his marriage and family may be the reason for its destruction.
As tension mounts, Wilk crafts relatable protagonists in William and Olivia, and discussions with the powerful AI called HD compel readers. The novel serves up serious jolts and resolves some mysteries before a cliffhanger ending, and Olivia’s fate is an inventive surprise...
Takeaway: Tech thriller of AI, a sinister company, and a farm family’s surprising fate.
Comparable Titles: Emma Geen’s The Many Selves of Katherine North, Samanta Schweblin’s Little Eyes.
