Reclaimed

By: Madeleine Roux

Narrated by: Eunice Wong

“Wickedly smart, devious as hell, and lightning fast.” -Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author

“A suspenseful and disturbing sci-fi thriller about the interweaving nature of trauma, memory, and identity.”—Peter Clines, New York Times bestselling author

In this claustrophobic science fiction thriller, a woman begins to doubt her own sanity and reality itself when she undergoes a dangerous experiment.

The Ganymede facility is a fresh start. At least that's what Senna tells herself when she arrives to take part in a cutting-edge scientific treatment in which participants have traumatic memories erased.

And Senna has reasons for wanting to escape her past.

But almost as soon as the treatment begins, Senna finds more than just her traumatic memories disappearing. She hardly recognizes her new life or herself. Even though the cure might justify the side effects of the process, Senna knows that something isn't right. As the side effects worsen, she will need to band together with the other participants to unravel the mystery of her present and save her future.

Critic reviews

“Wickedly smart, devious as hell, and lightning fast. Highly recommended.” -Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Relentless and V-Wars

“A suspenseful and disturbing sci-fi thriller about the interweaving nature of trauma, memory, and identity. This is what speculative fiction is all about! Reclaimed is one of those fantastic stories that makes you ask ‘what if…?’ I devoured every chapter.”—Peter Clines, New York Times bestselling author of Terminus and The Fold

“Absolutely stunning. Madeleine Roux is the best SF writer working today.”—Adam Christopher, author of Stranger Things: Darkness on the Edge of Town

"A swift, entertaining read. . . . Roux’s easy-going prose, fairly rigorous speculations, and engaging cast conspire to deliver some spooky SF that proves some tropes are eternal."—Locus

"Reclaimed is a brilliantly plotted science fiction story with an exhilarating take on classic sci-fi tropes and majorly creepy psychological horror elements.

I just did not get it

I had to stop after 5 hours. Is it science fiction, is it horror, is it ghost story, is it murder mystery? You decide.

A masterful performance

Three disparate individuals, each with a traumatic past, are selected to undergo a new treatment to erase their painful memories. What could go wrong?
Narrator Eunice Wong confides the story in a wonderful way and inhabits each of the characters in a masterful performance. Sci-fi is not normally my thing, but this is a must-listen.

loved it!

Excellent narrator and intriguing story, really coming to like this author's style and choices of subject matter.

I enjoyed this immensely...

Truly entertaining sci-fi. The small cast of characters compliment each other perfectly. I don't want to give any spoilers, at the time I am writing this, there are no other reviews, and I have to say I was happy to go in without any preconceptions or opinions. I just want to say that I was engaged from the beginning, and actually listened to the whole thing in a day. It played on my laptop, followed me around the house on Alexa, and when I had to leave the house, it came along on my phone. It was that intriguing.

Good book

I really enjoyed this book. I love a good sci-fi story and I can see this being made into a series—a movie wouldn’t do it justice.
