A parent would reach for this book when their teenager feels isolated by a secret burden or is struggling with the weight of being misunderstood by adults and peers. It is a gripping supernatural thriller about Vee, a high schooler who 'slides' into other people's minds, a condition mistaken for narcolepsy. When she experiences a murder through the eyes of a killer, she must navigate a world of secrets to find justice for her friend. The story addresses themes of grief, the isolation of neurodivergence, and the courage it takes to trust your own reality when everyone else calls it a delusion. It is a sophisticated choice for older teens who enjoy high-stakes mysteries with deep emotional resonance.
