One detective driven by instinct, the other by logic. It will take both to find a killer who knows the true meaning of fear . . .
When the body of a man is found crucified at the top of Mount Judd, AIDE Lock – the world’s first AI Detective – and DCS Kat Frank are thrust into the spotlight as they are given their first live case.
But with the discovery of another man’s body – also crucified – it appears that their killer is only just getting started. With the police warning local men to be vigilant, the Future Policing Unit is thrust into a hostile media frenzy as they desperately search for connections between the victims. But time is running out for them to join the dots and prevent another death.
For if Kat and Lock know anything, it’s that killers rarely stop – until they are made to.
Pre-order the new Jo Callaghan novel, Leave No
Trace, now! Coming March 2024. In the UK, someone is reported
missing every 90 seconds. Just gone. Vanished. In the blink of an
eye. DCS Kat Frank knows all about loss. A widowed single
mother, Kat is a cop who trusts her instincts. Picked to lead a
pilot programme that has her paired with AIDE (Artificially
Intelligent Detective Entity) Lock, Kat's instincts come up against
Lock's logic. But when the two missing person's cold cases they are
reviewing suddenly become active, Lock is the only one who can help
Kat when the case gets personal. AI versus human
experience. Logic versus instinct. With lives on the line
can the pair work together before someone else becomes another
statistic? In the Blink of an Eye is a dazzling debut from
an exciting new voice and asks us what we think it means to be
human. ‘I started reading this morning and ten hours later
I’ve finished it! It’s so, SO good – really properly
compelling, impossible to put down – I was desperate for the
solution to the mystery – but so human and moving and massively
thought-provoking on what makes us human’ Laura Marshall
‘Completely different and utterly brilliant’ Amanda Reynolds
‘SO good. A really clever twist on the police procedural that
asks big questions about instinct, bias, and what it means to be
human while also delivering a cracker of a plot. Loved it’ Phoebe
Locke  ‘It’s phenomenal . . . Perfect blend of
police procedural and techno thriller and kept me guessing right to
the end!’ Steph Broadribb 'It's so much more than a
dystopian police procedural and asks questions about who we are and
what it means to be human. Brilliant' Nikki Smith 'Thrilling,
thought-provoking and cinematic — a slam dunk for movie/TV
adaptation'Â Alexandra Sokoloff, author of the Huntress Moon
thrillers ‘Fabulous! A rare crime novel truly as much about
character as it is about plot…cried at the ending…huge
potential series exploring the human AI connection.
Loved'Â Â Lindsay Galvin 'I tore through this one in a
day. One of the best new crime partnerships to emerge in
fiction'Â Simon Bewick, Bay Tales Festival, Virtual Noir at
the Bar
