Entanglement is a quirky mystery with a sci-fi twist which reviews say "blends the wit of Douglas Adams with the sci-fi genius of Terry Pratchett" and "If you're a fan of Douglas Adams, Issac Asimov, Kurt Vonnegut or Haruki Murakami you'll definitely love this book too". David's fiancée worries when he drops out of contact. MI5 panics when a secret airbase vanishes. Liz doesn't understand when her research subjects go missing.
