In a not too far future, a simple outpatient procedure that has been promised to enhance empathy between romantic partners has become all the rage. So, when the fiancé of Briddey Falanigans proposed that he and Briddley would undergo the procedure, she was delighted. It was just that the results were not quite as expected. Briddley soon discovered herself hearing the actual thoughts of one of the nerdiest techs ever in her office. And that was supposed to be the least of her problems.

Crosstalk is a satirical and engaging look at the technology, relationships, and connectivity in the digital era. The author brought this to the audience with so much authenticity and authority. The narration on the other hand was pretty good which further adds to the value of the book.
