YA. Suspense fiction. Veronica Mars gets a fantastical twist in this novel about a girl with a transferrable consciousness, who uses her power for good, only to have it turned on her when someone uses her body to commit murder. Now she must solve the crime before the killer comes after her. Caught red handed... for a crime she didn't commit. It's an open secret at Harvey Davis High School that Tia Dante can solve all your problems (for a fee, of course). As one of the few blessed with the genetic gift of transferable consciousness, she can slip inside your mind and do your dirty work--humiliate your cheating boyfriend, bring a bully to his knees, tell your boss where to stick it--and then return your body with no one the wiser. No task is too awkward, and unlike the competition, she takes care of business without peeking at your goods. Her rules are simple: pay in full, don't report her side hustle to the government, and let her gorge on all the foods that would otherwise send her and her weak stomach fleeing to the nearest bathroom. Everything is going smoothly during a routine job, until Tia catches a breaking news broadcast: live video coverage of her (body) murdering the town prosecutor in cold blood. With the crime caught on camera and no concrete alibi, Tia is forced to ask her infuriatingly gorgeous ex to help clear her name and bring the criminal who hijacked her unconscious body to justice. But they quickly find the heat is on, in more ways than one, as their investigation unearths multiple scandals, massive corruption, and more than a few stray bullets. With a cliff-hanger at the end of every chapter, Melissa Landers weaves an unputdownable mystery that will have everyone talking. 13 yrs+… (altro)

This has a most intriguing theme, people, in this instance, mostly teens, who can swap consciousness with another and know their thoughts while manipulating their bodies for a period of time. In theory, they all are required to register with the government, but many, like Tia, refuse to for feat of being controlled or manipulated. She’s set up a clandestine side hustle, trading consciousness with select teens, to help them through situations that they don’t feel they can handle, or that are potentially painful. When she breaks her female only rule to help Josh who’s constantly being bullied, everything goes smoothly until she returns to her own body right after it was hijacked by a mystery person who used it to shoot the district attorney in the courthouse.
While Tia is able to partially get out from under the murder charge, she’s still facing several lesser charges and needs to figure out who set her up. Accomplishing that involves allying with her ex-boyfriend, nearly getting killed a couple times, some computer hacking, a number of red herrings, and a big, sometimes surly son of a Russian mobster.
The eventual reveal of who hijacked her body to do the crime, is a fitting climax to the story which I enjoyed greatly. ( )
