How this is someone’s debut novel I will never understand. This is such an intricate book, filled with detail and intrigue.

Aiden finds himself stumbling to a hunting lodge in someone else’s body, with no idea how he got there. Aiden is in a time loop, destined to live the same few days over and over again. The young Evelyn Hardcastle will die later that night, Aiden’s task? Save her, and as a reward he will be freed from the loop. But every time he sleeps he wakes up as a new person, and he only has 8 chances left…

Not only that, but there are two others like him, but only one can leave. A mysterious plague doctor watching his every move, and a fellow “body snatcher” trying to kill him off. Can Aiden solve who kills Evelyn? 

This is so detailed and I love it with my entire heart.
