A new literary, sci-fi thriller from acclaimed author Megan Miranda.
With the science of soul-fingerprinting a reality, Alina Chase has spent her entire life imprisoned for the crimes her past-self committed. In an attempt to clear her name, Alina unintentionally trades one prison for another when she escapes, aided by a group of teens whose intentions and motivations are a mystery to her. As she gets to know one of the boys, sparks fly, and Alina believes she may finally be able to trust someone. But when she uncovers clues left behind from her past life that only she can decipher, secrets begin to unravel. Alina must figure out whether she’s more than the soul she inherited, or if she’s fated to repeat the past.
This compelling story will leave readers wondering if this fictional world could become a reality
Oh Soulprint, you are my kind of weird. It delves into one of my favourite debates.
No, not reincarnation, or a type of reincarnation, even though that is a
similar factor in Soulprint, but the subject of criminal DNA and the whole are
criminal's born vs are criminals made? I could read so many of them and not get
bored, it's what I loved abut Uninvited and it's what I loved about Soulprint.,
and as with both, they go to the extreme. They're quite similar in a way, in
the way of the reaction and effects it has on the way people perceive it. But,
they are different, considering Uninvited is to do with a Criminal Gene, and
Soul Print is to do with past criminals souls being reborn. There's a database
proves the distinction between past life crimes linking to a present life
crimes, a likely hood that that soul will possibly do that crime again as
someone else. So does that automatically make that person a criminal, though
they haven't done anything yet? Or
does the fact they know they have a soul of a past criminal that makes them
think, well, might as well. There's a
test, tapping into your spinal fluid that can prove who's soul is in you., and
you're judged before you even do anything, it's like a ticking time bomb. Alina
has the soul of one half of the notorious criminal duo of June Calahan and Liam
White.
