Abstract
With a predictable job, a rent-stabilized apartment, and stellar dental insurance, still, Ever E. Whan does not like her office job any more than she did on day one. Nothing about it suits her—not the work, the hours, the team, not the break-room coffee machine. She thinks of quitting every day, but something she can’t name, but feels overwhelmingly, keeps her there. While she fantasizes about her grand resignation, she isn’t moved to act until a tragedy occurs on the job.
Hoping to do just about anything else, Ever isn’t quite prepared for the offer she’s given: to work as a professional “pretender.” An impersonator, a body double, Ever is offered the chance to shed her skin to travel the country with a new face, a new life, a new purpose every time.
