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. Will this piecemeal team prevail when a government operative is sent to investigate? 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. With a concept so daring and writing so gripping, readers will swiftly fall under the spell of Thomas Locke's endlessly creative mind. This thrilling psychological journey into the very nature of causation and consciousness will leave them turning the pages and grasping for solid ground.

Charlie, a community center guard, has little idea what he may be in for when he answers the request of a beautiful experimental psychologist, Gabriella. The request is simple--"Will you come with me?"--but it will lead to a test with untold implications on human consciousness itself in Double Edge, the prequel to the Fault Lines series by author Thomas Locke.
And, just like that, I've taken my first step into the realm of techno-thrillers.
I've known for a long enough time that I would eventually read some fiction by Locke, which is a pseudonym for one of my all-time favorite ChristFic authors, Davis Bunn. And while I was aware that some of Locke's titles are fantasy novels, I wasn't sure what genre the Fault Lines books would fall under. I had to look it up after finishing this prequel.
A techno-thriller. Got it.
There's action and intrigue in this read, to be sure. Danger and a mysterious experimental journey. I don't understand it all, I might be a little more familiar with some of it than I'd care to elaborate on, and overall, I don't trust it.
But if I did trust it, it would probably indicate that the material here is too easy. Too easy and predictable, for me. Hence, because I don't trust it, I plan on continuing the series. (
