Ex-neuroscientist Carina battles a drug problem, her conscience, and the overwhelming urge to kill. She satisfies her cravings in her dreams, fueled by the addictive drug "Zeal." But her path to self-destruction is set until she has a vision of a dead girl.

Sudice Inc. inflicted severe damage on Carina when she worked on their sinister brain-mapping project, unleashing violent compulsions within her. And this girl was a similar experiment, a product of their twisted research. As Carina realizes the vision was planted by her former colleague Mark, driven by a desperate desire to expose the company's wrongdoing, she knows he is likely already dead. Her only hope lies in unmasking her nemesis, or she will become the next victim.

To uncover the secrets Mark hid in her mind, Carina will need the assistance of a group of skilled hackers, one of whom is Dax, a doctor who can help her fight her addictions. If she can hold onto her humanity, there might be a chance for a future together. But first, she must destroy her adversary before it irrevocably changes us and our society forever.

Laura Lam's Shattered Minds is a thrilling and suspenseful novel that delves into a terrifying near-future where technology reigns supreme and infiltrates our dreams. It is a taut page-turner that will keep you hooked with its abundance of thrills and suspense until the very last page.
