This is a novel that invites many descriptions: a thriller with erotic undercurrents; a study about where today's technology will take us in the near future; a discussion about the definition of identity; and, at the same time, a story about relentless revenge.
In 2059, three female clones, named after their prototype Lady J, escape from the Scottish research centre where they have been brought to life a decade earlier. Their bodies are governed by one single mind, which is determined on avenging the callous experiments that Dr Galmuth, responsible for the Lady J clones' in-vitro-births, has performed out of greed.
The clones' flight through England eventually brings them ... no, her ... to London, where they - no, she - starts a killing spree with the intention of letting Dr Galmuth slowly face the appropriate consequences for the treatment of his laboratory-developed progeny who are growing three times faster than other humans. Provoked by Dr Galmuth's actions, she evolves into a prodigious murderess with the final goal of getting him to pay the highest personal price possible.
Besides being a thrilling story where it's hard to tell whether you agree with the assassin or those who hunt her, this futuristic novel - based on realistic, present-day technological research combined with a psychological study of the human psyche - is a mind-boggling tale about what the future may have in store for us.
This is an excellent work of literature written by Kim Ekemar. I loved how the plot was written in a dynamic setting, showing how much information the author had access to. I recommend this interesting novel to all genre readers because of its futuristic insights.
The Lady J Experiment was a fascinating read that kept me on the edge of my seat. I rate it a 4 out of 4 stars. I gave this book a four-star rating because it was not only an interesting and captivating read, but also professionally written and exceptionally well edited. - Online Book Reviews
This dramatic novel incorporates elements of revenge, greed, manipulation, technology, and surveillance into its tale about the power of science. The women embody many of these themes, while Dr. Galmuth's greed and hunger for notoriety cause him to manipulate them further. Clear warnings about how scientific discoveries and technological advancements might change humanity's future arise; Dr. Galmuth plans to profit from such growth, while the clones learn how to subvert the invasive reaches of technology. The book's drama builds in a continuous manner.
A tale focused on revenge and comeuppance, The Lady J Experiment warns about scientific meddling and the unhealthy desire to manipulate the lives of others. - Foreword Reviews
A blend of near-future science fiction thriller and literary speculation, Kim Ekemar's latest release revolves around three female clones who escape the torture of their research facility prison to enact revenge on the doctor who created them.
After being systematically experimented on by researchers in an effort to improve and sell the clone technology to unethical governments for military usages, the clones vow to escape their confinement. After weeks of planning, they finally break out of the facility and make their way to London where they begin to orchestrate an elaborate plan to avenge themselves in grand bloody style on Galmuth.
The obvious hook for this novel is the premise, which tantalizingly blends elements of science fiction with crime fiction. Fiction fans who enjoy unconventional narratives with thought-provoking conclusions will enjoy Ekemar's take on the near-future. - Blue Ink Reviews
