reviewed Singularity by Steven James (The Jevin Banks Experience -- Book 2)

None

A mysterious death, mysterious semi-government research institutes where some dodgy research is going on, hints of connections with organised crime and bent cops -- mix those ingredients and you can be sure that the protagonist and those he loves will be getting deeper into danger as the story progresses.

The protagonist is Jevin Banks, a stage musician who performs in Las Vegas, and his associates Charlene Antioch and Xavier Wray.

The "singularity" of the title concerns the development of Artificial Intelligence and the pint at which it overtakes human intelligence, and the book raises several questions about that.
