Madeleine Roux can write some great sci-fi horror thrillers. This had a great build-up which lulled me into a sense of security. By the time I realized what was going on, Roux had locked the doors with the horror inside.
I adored Salvaged and this was a cool tangential follow-up. Only one thing bothered me: a couple of plot points revolved around a 14 year old in the 2270's knowing David Fincher's The Game. It's unlikely 14 year olds know it now, let alone ones 250 years into the future.
