Obscura by joe hart6/30/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Agent: Laura Rennert, Andrea Brown Literary Agency. Joe Hart is a tremendous talent, and with Obscura, he has taken his storytelling to the next level.This is a genius work of science-fiction, brimming with thrills, scares, and most importantly, heart. Fans of Blake Crouch’s Wayward Pines series, with its combination of mystery, horror, and science fiction, will find this right up their alley. Hart’s empathetic and flawed lead keeps the novel’s speculative elements grounded. The unexpected consequences of an exciting new experimental technology help drive the page-turning plot. Soon realizing that she’s not been told the truth about the mission, Gillian becomes involved in both a murder mystery and an increasingly desperate effort to survive and return to Earth. Gillian agrees to leave Carrie behind for months in exchange for the promise of unlimited funding for her research and a chance to cure her child. In 2028, neural radiologist Gillian Ryan, the heroine of this outstanding standalone from Hart (the Dominion trilogy), joins a shuttle mission to an Earth-orbiting space station, where she hopes to work on developing a treatment for Losian’s disease, an Alzheimer-like neurological disorder that afflicts her eight-year-old daughter, Carrie. ![]()
