The Changeling Game


 

Synopsis: A young woman who successfully escaped her past for five years discovers that time has run out for her. Now it’s back with a vengeance, dragging her back to a period of her life she’s tried to forget.

Riddick has spent a year trying to locate the girl he once knew as Jack B. Badd, and learn why a woman named Kyra had claimed to be her. Now that he’s found his Jack, however, the mystery has only deepened.

Two girls, Jack and Kyra, from completely different worlds and lives, crossed paths and ran away together. One disappeared and the other stepped into her place. How and why that happened may be tangled up with the secret of how to finally take control of the Necromongers… or it may open a door to an even darker mystery.
