She has the perfect boyfriend. Her college plans are all in order. She has it all....until one day things start happening that she has no recollection of.
The dark truth that she discovers is that she was once a twin, but that twin died before she was ever born. Sasha comes to believe that she absorbed her twin while in the womb. Sasha believes that Shanna, her twin, still lives inside her and is now trying to live the life she never had a chance to live. The problem is that Shanna is not the good girl that Sasha always has been.
Mindy McGinnis has brought us another powerful and thought provoking novel that will keep you guessing and on the edge of your seat until the very end.
From Amazon:
Mindy McGinnis, award-winning author of The Female of the Species and A Madness So Discreet, returns with a new dark and twisted psychological thriller—perfect for fans of Gone Girl and Fight Club.
Sasha Stone knows her place—first-chair clarinet, top of her class, and at the side of her Oxford-wearing boyfriend. She’s worked her entire life to ensure her path to Oberlin Conservatory as a star musician is perfectly paved.
But suddenly there’s a fork in the road in the shape of Isaac Harver. Her body shifts toward him when he walks by, and her skin misses his touch even though she’s never known it. Why does he act like he knows her so well—too well—when she doesn’t know him at all?
Sasha discovers that her by-the-book life began by ending the chapter of another: the twin sister she absorbed in the womb. But that doesn’t explain the gaps of missing time in her practice schedule, or the memories she has of things she certainly never did with Isaac.
Armed with the knowledge that her heart might not be hers alone, Sasha must decide what she’s willing to do—and who she’s willing to hurt—to take it back.
