PR guru Lola Lovett's client has gone missing, but that's not the problem. It's the fact that he's meant to be at home. Already dead. But Lola hasn't come this far in life to let an inconvenience like an undead actor stop her from getting what she wants, so she immediately sets about getting close to the investigation into his disappearance...and DCI Sue Fisher. Sue's been laying low ever since the Medford nail bar case, determined to focus on her grieving son Tom and moving on from the horrors they've faced, but the search for actor Sam Stevens throws up unexpected challenges. Because in the glitzy, glamorous world of showbiz it's not a matter of discovering who might be keeping secrets, but rather, determining who is willing to kill to keep them... Praise for Natalie Tambini: 'An explosive thriller not for the faint-hearted' Woman's Own 'Secrets and lies on every page. Utterly absorbing' Best 'A brilliant thriller' Bella 'We couldn't put this down' Crime Scene Magazine 'Creepy,...

The rapid convergence of advanced technologies is leading us inexorably towards a future event of unprecedented importance. Futurists refer to this catalyzing event as, "The Singularity". This event will have a profound effect upon the human condition. Can this event fundamentally change what it means to be human? The foundations for the philosophy known as transhumanism have been laid out before us, and there is mounting evidence that suggests that perhaps we have been engineered as a society towards the capitulation to this new philosophical "science". Has the human mind been physiologically tampered with to pave the way for the post-human era? Could the exponential rise in neurological diversity be a symptom of this process? Could this really be the next step in human evolution? Or, is it a facade for something else? The digitization of human consciousness has begun, ready or not, but where do we go from here? The potential possibilities are staggering...

The job is as simple as they ever are for members of the Collective: get in, fool the marks, and commit some devastating corporate espionage. For Miroslav Antanasijević—an expert at faking identities—it's a high-stress gig, but one he's used to. At least that's how it starts. When it all goes wrong, Mirko barely escapes with his life... and only because a ride share driver comes to his rescue. Arlen Tate is just trying to finish his doctorate, help his sister through school, and leave his turbulent family life in the past where it belongs. His schedule is packed tight, and it does not have room for "help an organized crime syndicate rescue one of their own." Too bad the minute he hauls that stranger into his car and takes off, he's on a one-way trip down a rabbit hole of crime, corruption, and a very strange gray area between moral and illegal. And maybe he doesn't want to go back. Especially...
