This psychologically charged novel tells the gripping story of three strangers who escape from their corners of Middle America and become involved in an identity-theft scheme that profoundly changes each of their lives. It is an atmospheric, character-driven story that explores the human need to reinvent oneself after a great loss. Narrator Kirby Heyborne's reading urges the book forward, and his tone is both soothing and consistent. He does a masterful job of bringing the book's characters together while maintaining each person's identity through subtle but definite changes in pitch. Heyborne reads too quickly at times, but then gathers himself and returns to a more measured pace, deftly emphasizing key phrases and plot twists.
