Network - Lisa Llamrei

When Nora Lansing begins experiencing mysterious visions and hears voices she shouldn't be able to hear - she's deaf - she suspects something extraordinary is happening. She's right.

Nora is an enhanced carrier of the Martha's Vineyard gene, a rare genetic variant that doesn't just cause deafness. In some individuals, it unlocks something far more remarkable: access to the Clear, a hidden telepathic network connecting gifted people scattered across the globe.

As Nora and her friends - a brilliant Indian student, a Peruvian software entrepreneur, a young Japanese engineer, and her musician boyfriend Steven - begin to explore the Clear's impossible possibilities, they attract dangerous attention. A powerful organization called the Coalition has been studying the network for years. Now they've decided it must be destroyed. And so must everyone connected to it.

With allies disappearing, a beloved friend murdered, and the Clear itself beginning to collapse, Nora discovers something that changes everything: she isn't just connected to the network. She is the network. And that makes her the Coalition's most urgent target.

A gripping blend of science fiction, thriller, and human drama, Network explores what it means to belong, to communicate across every barrier, and to fight for a world others can't even see.
