What if there was a technique to transport a body to a different place? And what if this was immediately implemented towards crime?

The man in two bodies is a novel which spins around these questions, and while it was definitely an intriguing read, it couldn't convince me. I disliked the main characters voice and the start of the novel had already sort of given away the ending. Still, while I might not have really enjoyed reading it, I do find myself sometimes thinking of it. And that's something I will have to give it credit for.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for providing me with a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I received a free kindle copy of The Man in Two Bodies A Quantum Crime Caper by Stanley Salmons published by Fingerpress from NetGalley in exchange for a fair review.

I gave this entertaining futuristic book four stars. There was an interesting romantic situation where one person was doomed to be disappointed.

Synopsis:

Shunned by the scientific community for being ahead of his time... brilliant maverick Rodge Dukas works in a damp basement surrounded by outlandish equipment. His discovery could propel humanity to a new Golden Age. But his student friend Mike Barrett thinks bigger - use the discovery to carry out the Perfect Crime and grow unfeasibly rich.

Review:

What a great subject for a book. Highly reminiscent of The Fly, but without the fly, with just the teleportation pods. It's been done before, but that didn't make this book any less credible or fascinating. The prose is rich and well written and main characters Rodger, Mike and Suzy intriguing and likeable for the most part. Do they carry out the perfect crime? is there any such thing? Or is all criminal activity doomed to fail? Questions like these are answered at the shocking climax of this science fiction thriller. I did not see that one coming!
