I received this book free to read and review.I was not sure when I started this and thought that it seemed the output from a creative writing course as it was over descriptive to start with. But I soon got drawn into the story which is full of good ideas, the main character a fairly successful photographer who is trying to avenge the death of his father seemed an unlikely character to act how he did, however all is revealed in the end when nothing was as it seemed. Through the book there were enough clues to work things out but these were not too obvious. It is an easy read, my preference, but still a good plot which although on the surface seems straightforward has hidden depth. I could visualise the characters, even the minor ones and the author has sensibly not tried to explain advanced technology or techniques rather just stated it works which gives an authority to the things that have to happen for the plot to work.  I don't know if this is the first of a series as it both works well as a standalone or part one as the ending implies more to follow, if there are I will read them.
