The year is 2037 and the world as we know it has changed dramatically. With all the colossal technological advancements of the age, the most significant came from Drexler Nanotech Corporation, who created a serum engineered to resurrect the dead. The ethical implications were widespread and the serum was ultimately banned the world over.
It is in this setting, that an Aboriginal-Australian detective, Cain Duluth, and his Japanese-American partner, Akimi Ozaki, work for the Special Division for the Resurrected (SDR) in Nova Lucis, the newly created United Nations city-state off the east coast of the United States.

The biggest struggle I had with The Resurrected was being able to read it. Each time someone talked to another person through technology the text changed to light blue. Normally I read review copies on my phone and that was just not possible with this book. Even with my laptop, the text was really difficult to read and I know I missed pieces of information because of it. If the text was just a little bit darker I don't think I would have had this problem. Overall, The Resurrected was an interesting premise and with a release set for August, it will make a fun summer read. Read Full Review
