"There are eight days, and eight witnesses for you to inhabit.
"We will only let you escape once you tell us the name of the killer.
"Understood? Then let's begin . . .
"Evelyn Hardcastle will die. Every day until Aiden Bishop can identify her killer and break the cycle. But every time the day begins again, Aiden wakes up in the body of a different guest. And some of his hosts are more helpful than others..." --from the publisher
This is a great plot, and it had to be tremendously difficult to write. My head was spinning with the clues and characters given in their own individual 24-hour period. Oh, except for a couple characters who appear when another character has fallen asleep and disappear when that character wakes up. I think this kind of story has to be written brilliantly to be thoroughly enjoyed, and I don't think Turton quite pulled it off. Although fascinated with the story line, I got frustrated and considered quitting a time or two. Still, it is worth reading. I give it four out of five stars.
