Another interesting read by Marrs! I found this quite triggering due to recent events in my own life, however, I didn't put it down once I'd opened it! Without giving too much away, this book contains constant twists that you won't see coming. The idea of driverless cars is one that isn't too far-fetched but, in fact, completely realistic and incredibly daunting!

3.0

Fun continuing on from The One and the small mentions of finding your DNA match. Struggled to get into this story but the last third did have some fun back to back to back twists and reveals. But even with a few shocking twists the overall plot line felt predictable and a bit too preachy.
