SKINNER BOX by Carole Johnstone is a great sci-fi story, but not getting the recognition it deserves. Evie is on a scientific mission, studying nanites, while trying to survive the physical abuse from her husband Don, who is also part of the mission. She takes comfort from her lover Mas, and they decide it's time to get rid of her tormentor, but Evie changes her mind at the last minute.
Her confrontation with Don in his lab exposes the true nature of the mission, and the author finally reveals Evie's personal history, which is nothing less than shocking and horrifying. As she reluctantly come to terms with her past and accepts what is expected from her in the future, she changes her plans yet again.
As always,
