Publisher Description:

Awake As A Stranger - AWAKENING (Part 1)

What if YOU woke up living in someone else’s body? Naked. Alone. Afraid.

The night of Treaz’s 32nd birthday ended in a lonely, drunken stupor, and an unnerving mysterious man staring into her bedroom window.

When Treaz awakes, the mirror is wrong. A stranger stares back and mimics her every movement. That is not her body. Those are not her eyes welling with tears. How did she get there?

A thousand miles from her home, she is admitted to a chilling psychiatric hospital, like the one her mother had been committed to. Treaz is suddenly discharged and forced into a new job with an employer who inexplicably believes her story.

Each night she falls asleep wondering about tomorrow. Will she be transitioned? Whose life will she be experiencing next? Treaz must do her new employer's bidding—for now—unless she can find a way out of this frightening nightmare.

Omani involuntarily works long hours for her oppressive uncle while remaining hostage on his remote Swiss compound. She is forbidden contact with the outside world. He claims to be fighting terrorism, but she is not convinced.

Desperate and isolated, she risks deadly retaliation and finds a way to make a sole online friend, but his assertions are almost too much to believe. Should she trust him?
