About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

An unforgettable, gripping cat-and-mouse thriller, for fans of Minority Report and Blake Crouch.

Around the world, 22 people have been murdered. The victims fit no profile, the circumstances vary wildly, but one thing links them all: in every case the victim is branded with a number.

With police around the globe floundering and unable to identify any pattern, let alone find a killer, CIA Analyst Quinn Mitchell is called in to investigate.

Before long, Quinn is on the trail of an ice-hearted assassin with seemingly limitless resources - but she's prepared for that.

What she isn't prepared for is the person pulling the strings....

Critic reviews

"The plot is intriguing and twisty, and Cantrell has a compelling narrative style. A fast-paced near future thriller that will mess with your head." (James Oswald)

"[Scorpion] takes place in an only slightly futuristic world that snaps and bristles with technological capabilities that may seem distant or improbable but which are in fact just around the corner. There's snappy dialogue, sharp observation, and compelling characters in Quinn, Ranveer, and Henrietta; the technology sings, the physics is plausibly presented, and the suggestion of time travel fascinates. A fast, fun, and intelligent SF thriller." (Kirkus, starred review)

"This stunning near-future thriller takes some truly breathtaking turns...." (Publishers Weekly)

Pretentious drivel

suffered 10 chapters trying to like it, the author has a fascination with attaching facts and descriptions to almost every sentence. almost as if trying to say "look how clever I am at research. Supposed to be about some type of assassin, I think it briefly mentioned a killing somewhere but I had drifted off somewhere. not recommended and is now marked finished-only kept in my library to remind which author to avoid
