Story

The story

A weekend getaway turns into a nightmare when a sudden downpour leaves two friends drenched. Back at the hotel, Polly casually drains a stream of bloody fluid from her ear, insisting it is normal. Her friend Mandy watches in silent horror, realising the thing beside her is not human, yet it wears Polly's memories, her allergy, her laugh.

Trapped alone with it, Mandy plays along, pockets a sample of the blood, and calls the police from the lobby. But the receptionist Marsha drinks the bottle like a morning juice, and no one blinks. When a screaming woman is dragged off for "correction," Mandy understands the whole world has changed.

Now an officer is asking questions, and Mandy must speak their language to survive.

Opening excerpt

We got caught in a sudden downpour during our weekend getaway. By the time we finally made it back to the hotel, my best friend was already shivering and complaining.

"I swear my brain is completely waterlogged," Polly grumbled, tossing her damp jacket onto the armchair. "Who in their right mind decides to go sightseeing in a storm like this?"

"Then why don't you just pour the water out?" I replied absentmindedly, throwing our room key onto the dresser.
