This Mortal Coil
by Emily Suvada
When a lone soldier, Cole, arrives with news of Lachlan Agatta's death, all hope seems lost for Catarina. Her father was the world's leading geneticist, and humanity's best hope of beating a devastating virus. Then, hidden beneath Cole's genehacked enhancements she finds a message of hope: Lachlan created a vaccine.
Only she can find and decrypt it, if she can unravel the clues he left for her. The closer she gets, the more she finds herself at risk from Cartaxus, a shadowy organization with a stranglehold on the world's genetic tech. But it's too late to turn back.
There are three billion lives at stake, two people who can save them, and one final secret that Cat must unlock. A secret that will change everything.- Goodreads
This is one of my favorite reads. If a book can make me look at science in a different way then it gets major points. Cole was my favorite character not because of her skills but because she had the mouth to back it. She wasn't naive and allowed things to happen. She made things happen as best as she could and she stayed true to what she wanted to do which was to find her father.
The novel had a good pace and details that didn't feel as if it was dragging. Now let's talk about the science. It was easy to understand while still retaining its complexity and not feeling as if it is being dumbed down. It was well written.
I loved the character development in this story.
Overall, 5 Pickles
