’I love you. In every world.’ Young real estate agent Madison May is shocked when a client at an open house says these words to her. The man, a stranger, seems to know far too much about her, and professes his love - shortly before he murders her. Felicity Staples hates reporting on murders. As a journalist for a mid-size New York City paper, she knows she must take on the assignment to research Madison May’s shocking murder, but the crime seems random and the suspect is in the wind. That is, until Felicity spots the killer on the subway, right before he vanishes. Soon, Felicity senses her entire universe has shifted. No one remembers Madison May, or Felicity’s encounter with the mysterious man. And her cat is missing. Felicity soon realises that in pursuit of Madison’s killer, she followed him into a different dimension - one where everything about her existence is slightly altered. At first, she is determined to return to the reality she knows, but when Madison May - in this world, a struggling actress, is murdered again, Felicity decides she must find the killer - and learns that she is not the only one hunting him. Travelling through different realities, Felicity uncovers the opportunity - and danger - of living more than one life. ’With unrelenting tension, Max Barry weaves a complex tapestry where a sociopath’s insatiable obsession knows no bounds, not even time and space, and only two things are certain - he will kill her again because he’s killed her before. I devoured this novel in one sitting.’ J.D. Barker, author of A Caller’s Game
