About this ebook
A woman with shoulder bones as sharp as an eagleâs talonsâbones almost protruding from her skinâopens her mouth as wide as itâll go, impossibly wide, consuming the pill that takes both of her arms to cradle. The nourishment makes her thin stomach pop out like sheâs pregnant with a child so large itâll burst through her stomach. She swallows slowly and licks her lips. Her eyes search around hungrily for more.
That dream again.
Josie is skilled at her job as an âunfortunateâ who inhabits the bodies of her clients to perform their work while they sleep, but her coworkersâ cruel jealousy over her success leads to her enslavement and the loss of her dream-worker status. A YA sci-fi reimagining of the tale of Jacobâs favorite son Joseph, his dreams, and his famous coat.
