Brody takes no shortcuts and pulls no punches in this strong, bittersweet finale to the trilogy (Unremembered; Unforgotten). Recaptured and reprogrammed, rebellious prototype Sera remains the flashpoint for resistance to the all-powerful genetic modification company that created her. The narrative matches high-stakes action with a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between memory and self; the surprising, well-crafted climax is worthy of the buildup.
