Sobre este e-book
A disaffected banker gives up his life for a chance to start over—with a new identity and body—in the cult classic sci-fi thriller.
Though he possesses all the trappings of success, Antiochus Wilson is completely and utterly bored with his life. But that all changes when he gets a call from a dead friend. Turns out the friend isn’t exactly dead. He simply traded in his old life for a new one. And Wilson can do it too. As a Reborn, he can have all the excitement, wealth, and happiness he’s been missing . . . for a price.
Intrigued, Wilson encounters a mysterious and exclusive organization—one that arranges for a client’s demise and outfits each with a new body in which to begin again. But there’s no turning back, and no room for second-guessing.
When Wilson begins to question his new circumstances, he finds himself surrounded by danger. And as he pushes against the boundaries of his reborn life, his second chance may be his last.
