Publisher's summary

In 2048, Sam Bixler is a brilliant scientist working for Telos, the world's most powerful corporation. Little does she know that a shocking secret about a deadly virus lurks within Telos, setting her on a thrilling and dangerous journey.

Telos’s famed Project Alethea initiative treated countless Cato virus patients, including Sam's mother, Joan. Sam must question everything after evidence emerges that Telos may have lied about her mother's death, leaving room for the possibility that Joan might still be alive. Determined to unravel the truth, Sam returns to her hometown in the Hudson Valley, only to discover that her father, Clint, is missing. In her quest for answers, she crosses paths with the Resistance movement, her father's allies in the fight against Telos, as they risk everything to expose the dark side of Project Alethea.

Now, Sam faces a pivotal choice: Spy within her own company and infiltrate the Project Alethea Team for the Resistance or keep her comfortable life within Telos’s ecosystem.

Brace yourself for an immersive adventure, set in a chilling, futuristic New York City. Will the quest for truth be worth Sam risking her own life and the lives of her loved ones?

Alethea is written by Katrina Day and Philomena Polefrone and directed, edited, and scored by Mark Henry Phillips (Serial, Homecoming).

Wow! A little too close to home since 2020

Pandemic level virus takes out millions of humans, with the only ones gaining are those who are ‘helping’ to create a ‘cure’ ? Big companies that are at the forefront of the virus! Loved every bit of the story and the performance was great!!!

Interesting idea, poorly edited storyline

Seriously, this story needs a good editor. So many inconsistencies and there’s just no way any of these people would have survived 5 minutes in a dystopian surveillance state. Like they act all weird and serious about code names and then introduce the main character by her full name the first time they meet another resistance member 🤦‍♀️ Come on guys.
Personally I am also not a fan of the narrative style here. It was like listening to a movie. I constantly felt like I was missing something. There needed to be way more narration to fill in the gaps. And since there wasn’t a lot of narration you get to be treated to far too many kissing noises. Like literally just wet kissing sounds. So if you’re not into that I don’t recommend this one. Performances were ok I guess. It’s not the actors’ fault the script was poorly put together.

Mediocre

Predictable, and the actors sound like they’re reading. It’s a good plot overall, but pretty predictable. I guess I’m looking for a sci-fi, dystopian that blows me out of the water. I’ve seen/read so many and I’m looking for that next great thing, and this isn’t it :(

Enjoyable as a free listen.

It definitely has some issues, it is a mixed genre and as such it doesn’t follow a lot of the normal rules for science fiction, so I get why some reviewers were less impressed, but the characters are interesting, the storyline, while largely unbelievable on the sciences, economics, and technology fronts, is captivating and all to plausible on the socio-political front.
