A science fiction crime thriller that will appeal to fans of dark speculative fiction and reality romance programmes. I was interested in the science and ethics behind the making of Julia but this was never fully explored. An interesting novel but not for me.

Julia Walden has entered a competition to find love .. the only thing is she is not 'a real person' she is a Synth. specially made for the show.

fast forward and Julia is married with a child.. then her husband is killed and she stands accused.

This is a modern read and one that in this fast technically developing world seems all so real.

It is twisty and filled with drama and is a book that makes you think ..could this really happen.

Brilliant.
