Resumen del Editor

In this high-concept thriller, three competing interests race to master a dangerous and mind-bending technology even as time itself twists in unexpected directions. A flawless work of astonishing complexity and explosive tension, drawn from the latest developments in life science and quantum theory.

Reese Clawson’s work is mind-bending—literally. Her company specializes in global data analysis for an elite group of industry executives, and now a lucrative government contract is moving her into the realm of cutting-edge intelligence gathering. She is determined to crack the limits of consciousness—and in doing so, the boundaries of secrets and lies. But her experiment crashes as test subjects slide into a coma-like state. Reese is left scrambling to maintain control, drawing three disparate people into the search for answers—an adrenaline-amped thrill junkie with altered brain chemistry, an Italian scientist working on remote-viewing technology, and a math prodigy whose algorithms subvert computer encryption.

As the threads of perception and reality become tangled and even time itself twists in unexpected directions, one warning remains clear: What you don’t know can kill you.

Combining the science of today with breakthroughs of the future, Locke delivers a story with a concept so daring and writing so explosive, it will leave fans turning the pages and grasping for solid ground.

Critical Acclaim for Striking Distance:

“A truly remarkable work. The interweaving of three stories is faultless, the tension explosive. The story involving the intelligence community and military is extremely vivid and very well crafted. A wonderful read.” —Keith Hazard, Deputy Director (ret). Central Intelligence Agency

“Locke’s writing has never been stronger. The power of his style, especially in the presentation of situations, contexts, and geography is enough, more or less in and of itself, to make the book a gripping and intense experience.” —Phyllis Tickle, Senior Contributing Editor, Publishers Weekly
