Riveting and challenging. I had to take small breaks while I was racing through this book so that my brain didn’t overload in a swirl of confusion. 
What if you could implant memories into the brain of an Alzheimer’s patient so that they could remember their family and their life? This seemingly altruistic concept becomes the world’s nightmare when it is repurposed for personal gain - and then the US Government gets a hold of it - purely for correcting recent in justices - and then other countries get the technology and the world starts destroying itself again, and again, and again, and again. Destroying itself - until Barry Sutton remembers a way to change the outcome.
