The Future

At forty-two, Dr. Bloch, a profiler, longs for a child—a future. Her only path is finding a surrogate mother. Meanwhile, her pioneering algorithm meant to flag individuals planning terror attacks malfunctions, and a young Palestinian woman assassinates Israel’s minister of Space and Tourism. To “fix the bugs” in her system, Nurit confronts the assassin face to face. Their sessions together probe questions about both women’s pasts, while Bloch’s meetings with a potential surrogate force her to reconsider her decision about the future.
