In Off Target, Smith combines all the angst of a psychological drama about a woman desperate to have a child with the high concept baby engineering of the medical thriller to create a chilling vision of the problems it may cause. Smith's thriller is all so plausible, and her depth of research shows. As a trained scientist and frequent reader of popular science books plus all that spec and science fiction, I'd have happily hoovered up even more science, but for other readers I think she gets the balance just right. At the book's core is a scared young girl who's afraid she's a monster – something that should never happen. Eve Smith's prescient thriller is thought-provoking reading, a real page-turner too that I really enjoyed. Full review on my blog: https://annabookbel.net/off-target-by-eve-smith-blog-tour
