THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF SEVEN DEVILS

Goldilocks grabs your attention and doesn’t let go - a thought-provoking, imaginative call-to-arms, according to Katie Khan, author of Hold Back the Stars. This bold, feminist sci-fi novel comes from a singular, visionary talent.

This is The Martian by way of The Handmaid's Tale - a bold and thought-provoking new high-concept thriller. Despite increasing restrictions on the freedoms of women on Earth, Valerie Black is spearheading the first all-female mission to a planet in the Goldilocks Zone, where conditions are just right for human habitation. It’s humanity’s last hope for survival.

Naomi, Valerie’s surrogate daughter and the ship’s botanist, has been waiting her whole life for an opportunity like this - to step out of Valerie’s shadow and really make a difference. But when things start going wrong on the ship, Naomi suspects that someone on board is concealing a terrible secret and realizes time for life on Earth may be running out faster than they feared.

Find out why readers can't put Goldilocks down. Through the novel's fascinating premise, Lam gives us plenty of food for thought about gender dynamics in our own world, making it eerily prescient, as noted by USA TODAY.
