“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.

Publisher's Summary
Publisher's Summary
Recursion by Blake Crouch, the bestselling author of Dark Matter and the Wayward Pines trilogy, comes from a gripping science fiction thriller about time, identity, and memory.
Imagine being infected with a disease that drives you out of your mind with tormenting memories of a life you never lived. Now imagine that disease rapidly spreading with no hope of finding a cure. That’s the reality of Recursion, a chilling work of science fiction and horror from Crouch, narrated by Jon Lindstrom and Abby Craden.
In New York City, Detective Barry Sutton is on the case, attempting to uncover the truth behind a mysterious epidemic, often called false memory syndrome, that spreads through no known means and drives people mad. At the same time, neuroscientist Helena Smith works in a remote laboratory, unaware she holds the key to controlling this cruel disease and the fabric of time. When fate brings them together, Barry and Helen must confront their enemy before the world is trapped in a loop of ever-growing chaos.
Blending science and intrigue, our fascination with time travel and our fears of pandemic and insanity, Recursion is a wild, suspenseful, action-packed listen. Named one of the Best Books of the Year by Time, NPR, and BookRiot, and praised by Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek, and Goodreads, this audiobook is thoroughly pause-resistant and mind-blowing.
