This was a very confusing and not very enjoyable read. Thankfully it was a short read.
Very little character growth, characters just seem to pop up and have no real interaction.
This read to me that someone was trying to sound smart with an idea, and really not much of a story to go along with it.

This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.I received an advance copy of this book, thank you.
This book wasn't for me, but just because I didn't connect with the book doesn't mean others won't.
This is a short book, only 113 pages. There are recent connected murders, the main connections seem to be a complete absence of evidence. When investigating the scene, there is no evidence, there is no sensation of a crime having been committed. Witnesses can only describe feelings and confusion as to why they can't remember more. Clara is the show more head detective; she picks up on this immediately. Here's where the book begins to lose me. Clara is working with another fellow detective, Ryan and the medical examiner Henry. Clara mentions this feeling of absence and the medical examiner agrees. She says it's as if things are erased. Henry mentions that there has been studies and research, but nothing solid or real. The book takes on a futuristic sci fi feel. Clara walks around saying things and her poor hapless partner Ryan keeps asking, "What does this mean?" or "That is not an answer" I kid you not, page after page, Clara and her spidy senses seem to know what's going on and she walks around declaring things like "That was not a system response" or "It is a perpetual bleed" and poor Ryan keeps repeating his two phrases. The medical examiner walks around with sensor, letting Clara know when there are anomalies in the scene. There isn't much action or explanation, very vague and we never get clued in. show less
