Publisher Description
Alle tror, Vee lider af narkolepsi. Hvad de ikke ved er, at Vee ikke falder i søvn under sine anfald. Hun glider ind i andre menneskers bevidsthed og ser verden gennem deres øjne.
Vee har vænnet sig til, at det er sådan, det er. Hun har været inde i sin søster, da hun snød til en matematikprøve. Hun har været inde i sin lærer, mens han drak i smug.
Men pludselig en aften befinder hun sig i bevidstheden på et menneske, hun ikke kender og står bøjet over liget af sin søsters veninde, Sophie, med en blodig kniv i hånden.
Men hvem er personen med kniven? I hvis bevidsthed har hun været?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Hathaway debuts with a gripping paranormal thriller that takes the concept of "empathy" to a new level. Whenever high school junior Vee Bell comes in contact with an object another person has touched, she unwillingly "slides" into his or her mind, leaving her own body vulnerable. After she awakens beside the corpse of a cheerleader named Sophie a friend recently betrayed by Sophie's younger sister, Mattie Vee realizes she's in the body of a killer. Everyone assumes Sophie's death was a suicide, and Mattie is guilt-ridden. When another cheerleader dies, Vee decides to recognize her ability as a gift and solve the mystery before her sister becomes the next victim. The shifting perspectives as Vee enters the bodies of her friends, love interest Rollins, and others give the story an exhilarating momentum and an absorbing, cinematic quality. The interactions between Vee, Mattie, and their withdrawn father are especially well-done, as all three try to remember how to be a family five years after the death of the girls' mother. An emotionally taut mystery with depth. Ages 14 up.
