In a Nutshell: Flame-hot dystopian thriller

This dynamo of dystopian YA, the first in the Dark Matter trilogy, sizzles with sinister science and supernatural intrigue.

12 year-old Callie has survived an epidemic and broken out of an institute where she was known only as Subject 369X. While she’s struggling to deal with her transformation into an unimaginably shocking state – the excruciating effect of her treatment - her beloved half-brother Kai is searching for her. Enter Shay. Sharp-minded Shay has a photographic memory and remembers seeing Callie get into a car. As Shay and Kai try to piece together the mystery, the epidemic worsens. Schools are closed, a major army-administered quarantine operation is put into place, and Kai and his doctor mother are among the few who seem immune to the disease’s deadly grip. And then Shay herself seems to survive it, but why? So many questions unravel and knot, knot and unravel, as this gripping story accelerates to a cliffhanger of a conclusion. When Shay works out what’s going on, she’s hit by her most devastating realisation yet, and readers will be left desperate for the trilogy’s second installment in order to find out where this new knowledge takes her. Revenge, romance, ravaging disease, and a tenacious girl’s colossal survival instinct, this novel injects a high dose of adrenalin into the genre. ~ Joanne Owen
