In a world before The ProgramâĶ
Quinlan McKee is a closer. Since the age of seven, Quinn has held the responsibility of providing closure to grieving families with a special skillâshe can âbecomeâ anyone.
Recommended by grief counselors, Quinn is hired by families to take on the short-term role of a deceased loved one between the ages of fifteen and twenty. Sheâs not an exact copy, of course, but she wears their clothes and changes her hair, studies them through pictures and videos, and soon, Quinn can act like them, smell like themâĶbe them. But to do her job successfully, she canât get attached.
Now seventeen, Quinn is deft at recreating herself, sometimes confusing her own past with those of the people sheâs portrayed. When sheâs given her longest assignment, playing the role of Catalina Barnes, Quinn begins to bond with the deceased girlâs boyfriend. But thatâs only the first of many complications, especially when Quinn finds out the truth about Catalinaâs death. And the epidemic it could start.
