This story is set in a future where the planet is dominated
by the World Union. The World Union was
created to stabilize the planet after a devastating global depression. Brave New World came to mind when reading
the book. Phoenix a new, young global police force
agent is assigned a murder that is well beyond her experience. What she uncovers may be the most potent
threat to the World Union since it’s inception.
I saw part of this story as a coming of age for Phoenix. Although very bright and loaded with talent
she is unable to perceive her own abilities and strengths. Her lack of self esteem is her biggest road
block to success.
The World Union does not read like a fun place to live. The author takes aberrant aspects of society
and promotes them far beyond their Peter Principle. The germs of origin make them recognizable
but just barely.
This is a thought provoking book, more thought provoking
than enjoyable for me. I had trouble
getting into it and difficulty staying with it.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
