Fantastically imaginative and gripping.’ Angela Clarke, Sunday Times bestselling author 5* Review ’The writing hurtles along like a runaway train and you can barely pause for breath. What renders it original and ingenious is the background of embedded technology called ‘iMe’ (how perfect is that?!) It’s a crime thriller and it is very thrilling.' Gill Chedgey (NB Magazine) 5* Review ‘I must admit that I finished the book with a prayer that I will never see something like iMe in my lifetime - the idea is just too terrifying’ Breakaway Reviewers ‘5*s from me as the storyline is brilliant…Plenty of discussion topics here for bookclubs!’ EmmabBooks 'Proximity hits hard and cold right to the heart of what could be our future, and this knowledge makes this book one of the scariest I have ever read. I don’t care for horror. Just give me a speculative novel shaping a future so realistic I don’t even need to close my eyes to imagine it, and I’m sold. Sold and freaked out. Jem Tugwell’s outstanding description of years to close to ours to my taste left me speechless.’ Meggy Chocolate’n’Waffles 'A brilliant book, an excellent thriller and 100% entertaining.
