Reality is coming apart.
Across the world, people are being struck by vivid memories of lives they never lived. It looks like a disease, but there is no infection, no pattern, and no cure. Something deeper is at work. Something that threatens the structure of time itself.
Detective Barry Sutton is chasing the impossible. Neuroscientist Helena Smith is building a device meant to preserve memories. Neither of them is prepared for what they are about to uncover.
As time begins to shift and fracture, Barry and Helena find themselves at the center of a mystery that spans lifetimes. The choices they make could reset everything. Or destroy it.
In Recursion, Blake Crouch delivers a fast-paced, mind-bending thriller about memory, identity, and how far we’ll go to hold on to what matters.
