NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the bestselling author of Dark Matter and the Wayward Pines trilogy comes a relentless thriller about time, identity, and memory—his most mind-boggling, irresistible work to date, and the inspiration for Shondaland’s upcoming Netflix film.
“Gloriously twisting . . . a heady campfire tale of a novel.”—The New York Times Book Review
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY Time • NPR • BookRiot
Reality is broken.
At first, it looks like a disease. An epidemic that spreads through no known means, driving its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived. But the force that’s sweeping the world is no pathogen. It’s just the first shock wave, unleashed by a stunning discovery—and what’s in jeopardy is not our minds but the very fabric of time itself.
In New York City, Detective Barry Sutton is closing in on the truth—and in a remote laboratory, neuroscientist Helena Smith is unaware that she alone holds the key to this mystery . . . and the tools for fighting back.
Together, Barry and Helena will have to confront their enemy—before they, and the world, are trapped in a loop of ever-growing chaos.

As Barry begins to investigate an assumed suicide case he learns that there are similar cases around the country. People are speaking of having memories of lives never lived, not their own. Is it just another case of False Memory Syndrome? Is that new disease cursing around with no cure? Barry Sutton doesn’t believe it, and his instincts lead him on this astonishing journey where he discovers an amazing technology. One that can be both a blessing and a curse, it depends on who has control over it.
Recursion was the best for me to read so far, though it was also a bit challenging to follow. There is a lot of going back and forth, I found it confusing to keep all the different times apart. But with this topic, this always seems to be difficult to follow. Nevertheless, the story keeps the suspense up, worth reading if you don’t mind a bit of a challenge.
