Blind Spots: A Novel

**"The pace is fast, the body count significant, the loopholes minor. All this tech-enabled police procedural lacks is a Lennie Briscoe zinger at the beginning. Two guns—I mean thumbs—up." *–Wall Street Journal***
*A riveting crime novel with a speculative edge about the ways our perceptions of reality can be manipulated.*
Seven years ago, everyone in the world went blind in a matter of months. Technology helped people adjust to the new normal, creating a device that approximates vision, downloading visual data directly to people's brains. But what happens when someone finds a way to hack it and change what people see?
Homicide detective Mark Owens has been on the force since before The Blinding. When a scientist is murdered, and the only witness insists the killer was blacked out of her vision, Owens doesn't believe her—until a similar murder happens in front of him. With suspects ranging from tech billionaires to anti-modernity cultists—and with the bodies piling up—Owens must conduct an investigation in which he can't even trust his own eyes.
Thomas Mullen, the acclaimed author of *Darktown* and *The Last Town on Earth* , delivers an unputdownable crime novel about one man's search for truth in a world of surveillance and disinformation that's all too recognizable.
