What if you could find your soulmate through a DNA match? In John Marrs’ gripping psychological thriller The One, a revolutionary matchmaking service claims to do just that—pairing people based on their genetic compatibility. But love isn’t that simple. Five individuals, each eager to meet their perfect match, soon discover that their ideal partners come with secrets, complications, and even danger. As their stories unfold, the book dives deep into moral dilemmas, human nature, and the question of whether destiny can—or should—be scientifically determined. Fast-paced and full of twists, this novel keeps you hooked until the very end. It’s thought-provoking, unsettling, and perfect for fans of Black Mirror-style speculative fiction. If you love psychological thrillers with a dystopian edge, The One is an absolute must-read.
