This book begins with Saul, an average guy who also happens to be a cop. Things take a weird twist when he is asked to go under cover by physically switching bodies with a woman. At first he is skeptical about it, but he eventually ends up going along with it. After the switch takes place some things do not go as planned and Saul is put in a couple of dangerous situations.

At first Saul has trouble adjusting to being a woman but it doesn’t take him long to sort of get the hang of it. Things become problematic when he is forced to stay undercover longer than he agreed to and is actually held against his will. This story has lots of unexpected events and made me want to keep reading.

Overall I liked this book. It was a quick read and reminded me of The Host by Stephenie Meyer and A Beautiful Place to Die by Malla Nunn combined. My favorite part of the book was when Saul went back and delivered the letter to Derek. I thought that was the perfect thing to do with the Windlow Estate and the perfect thing to help Derek move on with his life.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone that is interested in science fiction. To me the procedure Saul underwent seemed like something that might soon be possible. After the events that Saul had to go through I do not thing that I would want this procedure performed on me.

I would rate this book 2 out of 4 stars due to the various typos and misspellings. I believe that if more effort were to be put forward this book has the potential to become very popular. I also think that it would make an interesting movie.
