But what happens when, in escaping your old life by stealing a new one, you jump out of the frying pan and into the fire?
Cousins from a clan of "dwellers"—people who inhabit the bodies and lives of others—become brothers when they take over the bodies of Jonah and Louis. An injury forces them to remain in the brothers' house, where they discover that the basement holds a dead body! As old and new secrets come to light, it becomes clear that every action always has consequences.

"...a fast-paced page-turner. " -- Publishers Weekly
"Award-winning science fiction and fantasy author Victoria crafts a fascinating example of weird fiction and a mystery within a mystery." -- Booklist
"What I love most about the novel is it is short yet it has woven all the threads perfectly in its place. It's watching a puzzle settles into its place, creating the clearer picture […] An understatement, I love it. Its parallelism to reality is what makes it haunting and sickening to the core. Silently rooting for justice to be served." -- Justine, Novels and Panda Bookstagram
