From the author of the “Magic 2.0” series comes an outer space caper where it’s the thief who’s having something stolen from her - her life.

It is the distant future, and Baird is a loner, a part time spy, and a notorious alleged thief. “Notorious” for the audacity of her crimes; “alleged” because nobody has ever been able to legally prove she committed any of them.

When the hush-hush agency known as the Toolbox recruits Baird, being a clandestine operative seems like a great way to get paid to do what she already does anyway. That is, until a mission goes wrong, and Baird is infected with a deadly virus. With only seven days to live, Baird has to complete a series of daring missions, each one designed to bring her closer to a cure.

Allegedly.

Baird suspects the Toolbox might not be telling her the whole truth. She's not sure what to believe or who to trust.

And the clock is ticking.

Fun to listen to

There’s a 25% chance I’m biased because of the deadpan delivery of the narrator and it’s hard for me to ingest Meyer’s humor without Luke Daniels. That aside, while there are humorous elements to the story and the way it unfolds, it’s not as comical as the off to be the wizard series, ludicrous as master of formalities, ridiculous as the authorities, or as solid as run program, it is however quite cool and shows a lot of potential for more novels. I ❤️ Scott, please don’t hate my review.

More “serious” than his other works

Good crime caper with a mystery twist, unfortunately drags on a little in the middle.
