Trent Dalton recommends

The Turing Protocol (2025)
Nick Croydon
"A wildly imaginative distortion of deeply researched historical fact forming a ripping tale of past-careens-into-present fiction. Urgent morse code message to my past self: READ THE TURING PROTOCOL NOW."

The Three Burials of Lotty Kneen (2021)
Krissy Kneen
"A spellbinding, heartbreaking odyssey of identity."
