Bridge

byLauren Beukes, Lisa Cordileone (Read by)
Twenty-four year old drop-out Bridge is paralysed, by the other lives she could have lived, the choices she could have made, and now, whoever she's supposed to be after her mother's premature death. Their relationship was complicated. Jo, a teenage runaway turned maverick neuroscientist, threw everything into chasing a mysterious artefact - the dreamworm - that allows you to switch between realities. Now, any chance of reconciliation is gone. Or is it?

When Bridge and her best friend Dom stumble on the dreamworm, she becomes convinced her mom is still out there. But the dreamworm is more dangerous than she can imagine, and she's not the only one hunting across time and space...

An addictive, fascinating and compelling page-turner. With an original take on the many worlds theory.
