What I know: a boy in my school will one day wipe out two-thirds of the population with a virus.

What I don’t know: who he is.

In a race against the clock, I not only have to figure out his identity, but I’ll have to outwit a voice from the future telling me to kill him. Because I’m starting to realize no one is telling the truth. But how can I play chess with someone who already knows the outcome of my every move? Someone so filled with malice they’ve lost all hope in humanity? Well, I’ll just have to find a way—because now they’ve drawn a target on the only boy I’ve ever loved...

Pintip Dunn is back and her words are just as addictive. This is a suspense novel with a dash of romance and a whole lot of mystery. To save the world you must sabotage your future.

Alice is an ordinary girl with an extraordinary brother. She doesn’t think she’s anything special, in fact, she can’t even cook. When a voice in her head starts telling her she needs to save the world her future path is about to take a new route. Malice is the only way to stop a virus wiping out millions. What if you saw a glimpse of your future? Would you try and change it?

Alice knows the virus is created by someone at school but she doesn’t know all the facts. Now she has to test the waters and upset the balance. Starting with a cruel trick and a crazy message. Embarrassing herself is only half the battle. Losing hope isn’t an option.

Dystopian worlds are Pintip Dunn’s speciality. This one had me guessing all the way through. Her writing style pulls you in and makes you want to turn the page. I couldn’t wait to find out how all the pieces fit. Thankfully the ending didn’t disappoint and was executed perfectly.

This is a standalone story. 4 Stars out of 5.

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
