Critics Review
“The Paradox Club was the book I’ve been turning over every stone to find, and I knew this was it from the first lines. Perfectly paced, expertly clever, smart without leaving anyone out, tender, riveting, original—I’m keeping this one for life.” —Virginia Evans, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Correspondent
“Smart, captivating, and wickedly entertaining, The Paradox Club is the kind of mystery that lures you in with intellect and keeps you turning pages with heart. A fast-paced puzzle box of a novel that completely satisfies.” —Jamie Ford, New York Times bestselling author of The Many Daughters of Afong Moy
“A highly inventive, tightly plotted mystery. Whip-smart and twisty, The Paradox Club is a heart-pounding ode to the power of science—and a chilling glimpse into what could happen if the mysteries of the universe fall into the wrong hands.” —Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author of Meet Me in Paris
“A compelling, rollicking mystery that asks the biggest questions of all: How far would we go, and what would we sacrifice, for the ones we love? As the story races toward its stunning conclusion, Lovett reminds us that beneath every intellectual puzzle lies the tender, precarious ache of love, loss, and choice.” —Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author of The Story She Left Behind
