A second chance in borrowed skin

Jack McCoy’s afterlife begins with an impossible act of identity theft: he occupies the body of Margaret Chen, a grim reaper who transports souls for S.C.Y.T.H.E. His new role puts his criminal past in direct contact with the work of collecting the dead, and a mission involving an old friend draws him into a planned heist with a group of former associates. The setup blends paranormal mystery with crime caper, while questions of identity, accountability, and a possible second chance run through Jack’s predicament. The stakes are personal as well as supernatural: his plan concerns a priceless list of souls and the people he cares about.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in cozy paranormal mysteries and supernatural crime plots.
  • Readers who enjoy stories involving identity changes, afterlife settings, and heists.
  • Readers looking for a crime story centered on an unlikely group of former associates.

Book overview

He's been charged with possession before, but never like this.

Jack McCoy was a thief and a liar. Then he died.

Margaret Chen transported souls for the biggest afterlife collection company in North America. Then she met Jack.

Possession isn't really supposed to be possible, but Jack McCoy never let a little thing like reality stop him. Now he's committing the ultimate identity theft, living a new life in Margaret's body while his own lies six feet under. Keeping up appearances as a geriatric grim reaper for S.C.Y.T.H.E. is a full-time job, but when Jack is sent to collect the soul of an old friend, his criminal past catches up with him and suddenly he's planning the heist of his (after)life with a gang of misfits he never thought he'd see again.

Now the only woman he's ever loved depends on his success in stealing a priceless list of souls from S.C.Y.T.H.E., but someone keeps beating him at his own game. Time is running out. If Jack puts one bunioned foot out of line it will cost him not only the people who matter most but also his second chance at life...
