THERE ARE INFINITE REALITIES.
SHE’S LOOKING FOR ONE . . .

Bridge’s maverick scientist mother Jo is dead.
Now she’s examining everything Jo left behind.
Which is when she finds her big secret: the dreamworm.
Is it a drug? A gateway to other worlds?

Jo believed so.

Bridge is desperate to see her mother again.
Will do anything, risk anything.
Including search for her in those other realities.

What she doesn''t know is that others are after Jo''s secret.
And some believe anyone it touches must be destroyed.

Bridge?
She just wants to find her mom . . .

Page-turning and ambitious, BRIDGE is a dazzlingly inventive speculative thriller with an unforgettable cast of characters, and the work of a novelist at the height of her powers.

''You can tell Beukes is having an absolute blast putting words on the page. Her fun is evident in the big, bloody action sequences; in the squirmy, almost retro grotesqueness of the dreamworm.'' - The New York Times

''An addictive, fascinating and compelling page-turner. With an original take on the many worlds theory.'' - Guardian

''Complex, challenging, gripping and thought-provoking. A morally thorny tale without clear-cut heroes or villains. Beukes does a skilful job of balancing desperate but very relatable hope.'' - SFX

'Lauren Beukes takes a story filled with psychedelic drugs, parallel worlds, and neuroscience and makes it also about a complex mother-daughter relationship, full of darkness, light, and longing. This is fun and insane and very moving' Mariana Enriquez, author of Our Share of Night

'Lauren Beukes' multiverse is thrilling-balancing madness, horror, and a big, bleeding, beating heart that reminds us that we are all connected in the end' Grady Hendrix

'Bridge spiders out into alternate universes, alternate selves, yet manages to be very much about us and our fractured now. It's a humane, thought-provoking puzzle box, and a wildly entertaining novel' Paul Tremblay, bestselling author of The Cabin at the End of the World and The Pallbearers Club
