In the United States of Earth, Madrid, 2109, the number of techno-human deaths is rapidly growing. Detective Bruna Husky is hired to discover what's behind this wave of insanity. She must trust no one, because those who call themselves allies are ready to betray her.
Fascinating posthuman detective novel that makes good use of innovating off of Blade Runner.
I have high hopes for the next in this series
A nice thriller, in a universe that's largely inspired by Blade Runner. Bruna, the heroine, is a replicant, knows she's one, and knows that she has a very limited lifespan. She investigates a series of events: a replicant kills another replicant, then commits suicide. Not the most memorable book ever, but a nice read nonetheless.
