LEXIE BROOKNER has somehow landed in an alternate version of her life. At first, the devoted grandmother and retired landscape architect brushes off the strange occurrences as signs of aging. Is she hallucinating? Has dementia crept in without her noticing? Determined to find answers, Lexie undergoes brain scans, sleep studies, and therapy, only to be told that her brain is perfectly healthy.
But how can that be? Lexie's world is anything but normal. One day, she wakes to news of relentless terrorist attacks on American cities; the next, there's a mysterious extra room in her hallway or a completely different dog lounging in her living room. And, most disturbingly, her deceased husband and twin brother keep reappearing-alive-in a slightly altered version of her apartment.Her children are concerned, her boyfriend is frustrated, and only her dog remains impartial. The most improbable explanation seems to be the only one that fits: Lexie has somehow slipped into an alternate universe.No Place Like uses the concept of the multiverse to explore Lexie's what if questions. What if her twin brother had survived? What if her husband, Simon, were still alive? But even if this new reality feels like a better version of her life, is there a price to pay for being here? And, more importantly, is there anyone who can help Lexie stay anchored in any universe at all?
