When the email arrives, John's life is just starting to recover from his father's death from cancer several months earlier. Between his eccentric best friend, Jerry, and his job stocking shelves at his father's electrical supply store, he's nearly distracted from his emotionally withdrawn mother; and the new girl at school, Claire, is a surprising source of support, able to empathize with John's experience better than anyone he knows. But then the email arrives, and suddenly nothing about his life is certain anymore. Who is Evan? How does he know so many details of John's life? And can he really be. John's split personality? With Jerry's help, John investigates Evan's claims, unraveling the mystery one night at a time; but just when they think they've uncovered the truth, they discover that Evan isn't exactly what he seems. He wants more than they originally suspected. He wants it all. And he might just be willing to kill for it.
