Based loosely on genetics research conducted during World War II, the story races through a complex and devastating arc of conspiracy and mayhem with breathless abandon.<\/p>\n What I love best about this story, though, is its commitment to upping the ante, again and again, chapter after chapter. I lost track of how many times I paused to ask no one in particular, \u201cWait, there\u2019s more<\/i>?\u201d And until the very end, there\u2019s always more: more stunning plot twists, more cliff-hangers, and more at stake in how it all plays out. As the conspiracy unfolds and the death toll mounts, we\u2019re driven toward a surprise that forces us to stare into the mirror and face the often violent lengths we\u2019ll go to to preserve our way of life.<\/p>\n Yet The Gemini Effect <\/i>is still a hefty dose of screaming fun.

late mother\u2019s possessions. Haunted by a childhood of neglect, she resolves to dig deep into her family\u2019s past and finally uncover the reasons why. Her enquiries lead her to the home of a retired history teacher. He was among her mother\u2019s circle of friends during the Second World War but her questions are met with bizarre and evasive answers. Two days later he meets a violent death. Detective patrik Hedstr\u00f6m, Erica\u2019s husband, is on paternity leave but soon becomes embroiled in the murder investigation. Who would kill so ruthlessly to bury secrets so old? Reluctantly Erica must read her mother\u2019s wartime diaries. But within the pages is a painful revelation about Erica\u2019s past. Could what little knowledge she has be enough to endanger her husband and newborn baby? The dark past is coming to light, and no one will escape the truth of how they came to be . .<\/p>\n![\"what](\"https:\/\/blogs.iwu.edu\/library\/files\/2015\/03\/what-alice-forgot.jpg\")
So imagine Alice\u2019s surprise when she comes to on the floor of a gym (agym! She HATES\u00a0the gym) and is whisked off to the hospital where she discovers the honeymoon is truly over \u2014 she\u2019s getting divorced, she has three kids, and she\u2019s actually 39 years old.\u00a0Alice must reconstruct the events of a lost decade, and find out whether it\u2019s possible to reconstruct her life at the same time. She has to figure out why her sister hardly talks to her, and how is it that she\u2019s become one of those super skinny moms with really expensive clothes. Ultimately, Alice must discover whether forgetting is a blessing or a curse, and whether it\u2019s possible to start over\u2026<\/p>\n![\"gemini](\"https:\/\/blogs.iwu.edu\/library\/files\/2015\/03\/gemini-effect.jpg\")
<\/a>For a debut novelist, Chuck Grossart tells a tale with surprisingly little fat, and the book\u2019s breakneck pace was a big part of why it won the 2014 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award for Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror. But it\u2019s not only <\/i>fast. The awards committee and I also loved the book\u2019s \u201cgood guys,\u201d particularly two admirable women\u2014biowarfare specialist Carolyn Ridenour and US vice president Allison Perez\u2014whose unerringly noble motivations provide the few moral beacons in Chuck\u2019s apocalyptic world, where everyone faces imminent risk.<\/p>\n
