Publisher Description
When the crime wave peaked in the early 70s, and Nixon signed the Redemption Act, no one bothered to imagine what public execution might look like fifty years in the future. No one imagined that The Tetradome Run would become the most popular show in America.
This year's show puts convicted felons in a race with genetically engineered monstrous creations. Murderers, rapists, terrorists, and thieves--they all will take their place at the starting line, and the most notorious among them is Jenna Duvall, the college student who shot a Senator.
Allegedly.
Jenna swears she's innocent, and as she runs for her life in the Tetradome, a small-town journalist uncovers a shocking counter-narrative that suggests there is more to Jenna's story than anyone knows.
A mashup of dystopian thriller and riveting psychological suspense, The Tetradome Run is a novel that doesn't need to look far into the future to find a world gone wrong. Instead, it looks at America right here, right now, and dares the reader to ask a provocative question: What if we already live in dystopia?
Customer Reviews
Fantastic story plot with great twists!
Like many other 5-star reviewers, I will treasure this story and hope to read a follow-up to it. However, like the author alludes to, it may be better to leave it as an open-ended finished piece of work - and let your imagination finish it as something less than its original is. I mean, seriously, the bar is too high to continue it.
This is the type of story you could see as a movie. It certainly played out like one in my imagination.
To Spencer Baum, thank you for a great read! The only thing I can imagine that would be better is if you finished it with a comeuppance. Maybe do so with a subsequent update; as some authors have done, even if it sounds like a cheat to do so.
It’s a great book!
This is one of the best books I’ve read in a while. I absolutely loved it.
I would have liked more at the end of the book.
Totally sucked in
I couldn’t put it down. There was no unnecessary fluff to it at all. I love how the story leaves you wanting to know more but also ties up the important pieces. I wish there was a second book already!!
