In Soulprint‘s world, souls move on to another body after death, and science has allowed for the soul to be “tested” so a person could find out who their soul belonged to before them. I liked that they admitted that, because I think anything else would have been really hard to believe. The thing that made it really work for me is that no one completely understood how the soul worked. Well, well, wasn’t this the pleasant surprise! I honestly didn’t know what to think of this going in, and figured it was going to go one of two ways: Unbelievable and silly, or thought provoking and exciting. Something about the nature of their souls.Īlina doesn’t know who to trust, or what June intends for her to know, and the closer she gets to the answers, the more she wonders who June was, who she is, whether she’s destined to repeat the past, whether there are truths best kept hidden-and what one life is really worth. Something that gets at the heart of who they all are-about the past and the present. While everyone believes Alina is trying to continue in June’s footsteps, Alina believes June is trying to show her something more. Clues only Alina can see and decipher, clues that make it apparent that June is leading her to something. A way to finish the crimes she started.Īided by three people with their own secret motivations, Alina escapes, only to discover that she may have just traded one prison for another. Now, there are whispers that June has left something behind for her next life-something that would allow Alina to access the information in the soul-database again. June had accomplished the impossible: hacking into the soul-database, ruining countless lives in the process. With soul-fingerprinting a reality, science can now screen for the soul, and everyone knows that Alina’s soul had once belonged to notorious criminal, June Calahan, though that information is supposed to be private.
