'synopsis' may belong to another edition of this title. As I was reading, I felt as though the fate of my own world was at stake, and I had to continue until I knew what the ending would be. Cyberterrorism is becoming more and more frequent and people are losing themselves within social media. I was also on the edge of my seat, waiting to find out what would happen next. I really enjoyed this novel as it traveled both through the Sci-Fi and the thriller/mystery realms. I am usually pretty good at solving mysteries, but was blown away by this one.

The world building was well written and I loved the fast pace. There was no good reason to put the book down. I thought that The Soul Snatchers by Richard Sanford was a fascinating and fast-paced read.

In a future world not so distant, in a cyber cell in the shadowy foothills, the soul snatchers are watching, and waiting. With the fates of Therica, his son Derek, and billions of the socially interconnected in the balance, Tzaro and the rag-tag team who join him-Calvin Carmody the professor of ancient languages, Svetla the Bulgarian Guber driver, Wes the old-school programmer, and hardheaded Morgan, rebel with a cause-plunge into a race against madness. At the center is Therica’s obsession, the mega networking platform Wundrus. And no known cause.Ī chilling discovery on Therica’s phablet fractures the world Tzaro knows and propels him into a strange, altered one.

Stories like hers are lighting up media around the globe-psychotic breaks, social isolation, explosive violence. Tzaro Janssen, a seismologist in a next-gen lab in the San Juan Islands, witnesses a meltdown.
