The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
by Stuart Turton
This book will intrigue, confuse and challenge your mind.
Aiden Bishop lives through a single day at Blackheath eight times, in eight people’s 'host’ bodies. His actions in each host remains when he moves to another host. He is needing to solve a death, that doesn't look like murder but is, by 11pm on the last day.
So how would you blackmail someone, if you don't have information on them yet? Well, your future self, in another host’s body, will bring it to you.
There's others fighting to solve this murder - are they good or are they going to betray Bishop? These people are different; they only live the day once, in one host. But why? Why/how is this even happening.
Oh! And there’s a deadly 'Footman', hunting down all of Bishop's hosts.
The story has clever layers, similar to - but in no way the same mechanics as Inception. The story is a living thing, always evolving. Making the world unleaveable.
This book will make you question why someone is who they are, whether it is because of their actions and how others affect their actions. And if a person can change. Or if the day can be changed.

'For all I know, the only difference between myself and the footman is the mind I’m sharing.'
