"Ella Patel--thief, con-artist and smuggler--is in the wrong place at the wrong time. One night, on the border of a demilitarized zone run by the body-swapping alien invaders, she happens upon a man and woman being chased by a group of assailants. The man freezes, leaving the woman to fight off five attackers at once, before succumbing. As she dies, to both Ella and the man{u2019}s surprise, the sparkling light that rises from the woman enters Ella, instead of the man. She soon realizes she{u2019}s been inhabited by Io, a low-ranking Quasing who was involved in some of the worst decisions in history. Now Ella must now help the alien presence to complete her mission and investigate a rash of murders in the border states that maintain the frail peace."--Amazon.com. (less)
