Advance praise for
THE ALGORITHM WILL SEE YOU NOW:
“I’ve been waiting for a book like this: a full-frontal assault on the dangers of artificial intelligence and the failures of our mangled health care system, all wrapped up in a clever, ripping thriller. Jennifer Lycette is an author to watch.”
Rob Hart, author of THE PARADOX HOTEL
“In the tradition of Robert Harris’ classic thriller The Fear Index, and Arthur C. Clark’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, JL Lycette’s novel about the perils of flawed, uncontrollable artificial intelligence is an emotionally-charged, cautionary tale about the role of technology in modern medicine.”

“Lycette creates a very near future that readers will find to be fleshed out and tangible in its portrait of a near-future American healthcare system…A futuristic medical thriller with keen medical details and fast pacing.”
Kirkus Reviews
“In her debut, Lycette explores the darkest realities about the healthcare system and what generations of the near future could potentially face if power shifts to the wrong hands. Perhaps even more gripping is how she delves into the ways grief can shape someone, causing them to make questionable decisions in the name of redemption. With nuanced characters and a truly terrifying premise, THE ALGORITHM WILL SEE YOU NOW is an ambitious debut that delivers. “
Heather Levy, author of Anthony nominated WALKING THROUGH NEEDLES
“This exciting thriller finds a physician battling a medical corporation over the future of medicine…Lycette’s likable heroes, and the significance of their mission, carry the story through to its exciting and emotional conclusion.”
BookLife Review

There are no easy decisions here, and Lycette paints a wonderfully complex portrait in an exciting debut.”
E.A. Aymar, author of NO HOME FOR KILLERS
“Full of intrigue and smart thrills, The Algorithm Will See You Now is a incisive vision of a tech-driven future, amping up the contemporary horrors of our healthcare system to the extreme. Lycette’s mastery of the medical field shines through, and her empathetic storytelling invites us to examine where we are headed and how we treat each other as human beings.”
Victor Manibo, author of THE SLEEPLESS
“An AI is putting profit over life. And patients are dying. The Algorithm Will See You Now is a tense, terrifying ride that dives into prescient themes of power, control, and the corruption of Big Medicine. Here’s your wake up call. This disturbing future is closer than you think.”
L.P. Styles, author of THE MOLECULE THIEF
“Get ready to be enthralled! Dr. Lycette poignantly lays out the future of healthcare with impeccable lucidity when AI becomes the center stage of medicine. While AI is promised to improve operational efficiencies, streamline tasks and cut down human error, it comes with its own challenges like overlooking personal preferences, fears and economic restraints for patients. A brilliant book with vivid characterizations!”
