Josie has survived in The City by spending her days with grieving clients and the goodbyes they never had. As an unregistered Mimic, she’s had to maneuver through all the security measures in The City to keep her business running. The last thing she expects is her routined life to be interrupted by a very powerful business owner.

When Talia Donovan, Hattan’s most esteemed business woman, hires Josie to mimic a loved one, she finds out this isn’t an ordinary job. Josie is soon plunged deeper into the world she thought she knew, only to find harrowing lies and darker truths.

Join Josie as she navigates life, love, and lies, in the majestic borough of Hattan.
