Oscar DeHaven screwed up his life. Luckily, he’s rich enough to try again. With the services of the mysterious, utopian Forever Foundation, he is reborn a century later with a new body, a new identity―Jake.

A lifetime before, Kate never expected love to live up to her fantasies. But there’s something about Harry’s ice-blue eyes that draw her in, even as she begins to see the darker shades of his true colours.

The Foundation is elitist and exacting; mistakes cannot be borne. From its cold grasp Milly rescues Faith, a baby who shouldn’t exist, and sets out to redress the Foundation’s legacy of suffering and sadness.

Everything seems perfect―except for the nightmares that wake both Faith and Jake, pursued through their dreams by a faceless evil. And there is something lurking inside of Harry, too, gathering like storm clouds, with consequences too far reaching for anyone to predict. As six lives entwine in a web spun over decades, secrets are uncovered that invoke a timeless, troubling question: Are we defined by nature or nurture?

And who says you only live once?

About the Author

Cheryl Davies was born in Ashford, England in 1978. She moved with her family to the Isle of Man when aged five. She obtained her degree in English Lit at the University of Hertfordshire, and returned to the Island and qualified as a teacher. She has taught in a local primary school for nine years. Davies loves the Manx countryside, and her small but gorgeous garden. She's a little obsessed with palm trees. As a demented but doting first-time mum, much of her time is spent caring for her new baby, who is both beautiful and bonkers! She's the centre of her world and the reason for everything Davies does. Davies lives happily with baby beautiful, the spirit of their much-missed cat, Pudge, and fiance Dean. She is the author of the acclaimed book Automaton and upcoming novel Resonance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Intricate and intriguing

I quite enjoyed this book because of the excellent writing. The author is a skilled storyteller, and weaves an intricate tale of the impact of a flawed man seeking to live beyond his time, and the consequences that ripple through a series of surrounding relationships. This is a thought-provoking work that goes beyond genre, yet entertains with an intriguing plot. I think you'll enjoy reading Resonance! Recommended by L.R. Ryan.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Thoughtful Look at Rebirth and Second Chances
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2014

Having read and enjoyed C. L. Davies’ debut novel Automaton, I looked forward to her second novel, Resonance. The author does not disappoint and in fact has made strides in her storytelling, resulting in a superior work in comparison.

Resonance is a story about second chances. What if we were able to live again? What, if any changes would one make? Are the imperfections trapped in our DNA truly what make us who we are, and would one be doomed to repeat past mistakes if given an opportunity for a second life?

Meet Oscar: extremely rich but at the same time lonely and dissatisfied by a life of spoil, ego, and envy that eventually robbed him of the happiness that he realized that he should have enjoyed. At the end of his natural life, he buys into an opportunity via The Foundation, an elitist corporation that specializes in rebirth. Oscar’s consciousness and DNA will be inserted into a cloned embryo, allowing him to be ‘born again.’

Meet Jake: a Foundation baby. He is the result of Oscar’s DNA merge, adopted by caring parents and raised in a loving environment. Yet he is plagued by nightmares and a creeping darkness that lurks deep within. When he meets the woman of his dream, his inner turmoil threatens all that he seeks to build when familiar feelings of distrust and rage boil beneath the surface.

Then there is Milly, a former Foundation employee who rescues a defective child through adoption, and Kate, who meets the man of her dreams in Harry, who may not be all that she imagined after all. Their lives are all linked to the mysterious Foundation Corporation, and the ramifications of the rebirth program will affect them all in ways both sinister and enlightening.

What I enjoyed about the story was the moral and theoretical questions that are raised. Immortality is an intriguing subject to contemplate, and just about everyone would like to revisit their past to alter their mistakes, or even hit a ‘restart’ button and start everything over again. But would that indeed be a ‘good’ thing? C. L. Davies does a fine job in applying those concepts in the terms of relationships and how the ghosts of the past can affect the present and future of those who have had undergone the rebirth treatment. This is science fiction that less technical and more philosophical, delving into the quandary of the decision to implant oneself in the life of another. A solid novel that’s definitely worth a read or two.

3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing at the end
Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2014

What's not to love about a science fiction novel that combines with the paranormal walk-in notion? I loved the premise of the book and hung in with all the seemingly unconnected stories until the end.

Far from a satisfying ending, the book ends with yet another one of those condemnations of technology that is pretty well overdone at this point. And it was signaled in the early pages, so little surprise. Additionally, while there were intimations of what it means to live again, the chance to philosophize and extend the reader's thinking was largely missed.

A huge logic gap was how Harry fit into the technology picture other than his blue eyes. I'm not usually dense with books like this--I read a lot of them--but I was lost trying to make the connection.

4.0 out of 5 stars An intriguing idea

This book wasn't at all what I expected, but I really enjoyed it. I spent most of my time trying to figure out how it was all going to come together in the end and trying not to sneak a peek. When the big reveal happened and all of the intricate puzzle pieces fell into place, I was not disappointed. The intertwined plots kept me intrigued (and a bit confused at times). It was an interesting twist on living forever. The characters were easy to be engrossed in. Overall, I really enjoyed this book.

Purchased this one because I thought the cover looked cool. Was pleasantly surprised by this Sci-Fi/thriller with an English flavor. (Be prepared for some 'bollocks' and 'felt like a right tit.') Has some great ideas about being 'born again'...not religiously, but by the Foundation doctors, who will gladly perform a slightly grotesque operation that cuts the 'soul' out of a person's brain and implants it in a newborn baby. (The author does it tastefully, without any gore.) Tore through this one in two readings--on a plane from Washington to Nebraska, plus a lovely 4 hour layover in Denver. (Great deal for $3.)
