WHEN I WAS YOU
The obsession starts on an ordinary fall morning when Kelly Medina gets a call from her son's pediatrician, asking if she'd like to confirm her upcoming well-baby appointment. It's a cruel mistake; her son left for college a year ago, and Kelly's never felt so alone. The receptionist quickly apologizes: it seems she's just called the wrong Kelly Medina.
For days, Kelly can't stop thinking about the woman who shares her name. Lives in her same town. Has a baby, and her whole life ahead of her. She can't help Googling her - to no avail - and talking about her and looking for her at the grocery store, at the gym. It's silly, she knows. Unhealthy. In the eyes of her husband, her best friend, her concerned psychologist, dangerous even.
When Kelly just happens to bump into the single mother outside that pediatrician's office, it's simple curiosity getting the better of her. When they become friends, Kelly can't help but find a renewed sense of purpose taking care of this young woman and her adorable baby boy. And when one Kelly disappears, well, the other one may know why.
In the vein of You and Fatal Attraction, WHEN I WAS YOU is an up-all-night story of suspicion, obsession, and motherhood. With page-turning, atmospheric prose, Amber Garza captures the nightmares we invite into our own homes - and the peril of claiming someone else's world as your own.
