…Claire North…has established a reputation for tense, dense, science fiction/fantasy-inflected thrillers that defy facile expectations…[The Sudden Appearance of Hope] is simultaneously a tense conspiracy caper, a haunting meditation on loneliness and a brutally cynical examination of modern media. With so many layers to juggle, it would be easy for North to fumble her way into a multifaceted mess. Instead, all the layers float, separate yet supporting one another, in a well-paced, brilliant and balanced whole.
The World Fantasy Award-winning thriller about a girl no one can remember, from the acclaimed author of The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August and 84K.
My name is Hope Arden, and you won't know who I am. But we've met before -- a thousand times.
It started when I was sixteen years old. A father forgetting to drive me to school. A mother setting the table for three, not four. A friend who looks at me and sees a stranger.
No matter what I do, the words I say, the crimes I commit, you will never remember who I am.
That makes my life difficult. It also makes me dangerous.
The Sudden Appearance of Hope is a riveting and heartbreaking exploration of identity and existence, about a forgotten girl whose story will stay with you forever.
