A GRIPPING LESBIAN PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER WITH A SUPERNATURAL EDGE.
Strangely Familiar is a dark, twisty lesbian thriller and the pulse-quickening follow-up to The Stranger Within Me.
My wife became perfect overnight. Turns out, she was not my wife at all.
Homicide detective Ashley Tate knows something is wrong. Her crime boss lover, Coco Matino, is not acting like herself. Because she isn't.
Identity, desire, and justice collide when Ashley realises Coco has been replaced by someone with an ability that should not exist.
After a clandestine lab abducts and experiments on journalist Jude Abrahams, she wakes with the power to become anyone. She uses it to hunt predators the law cannot touch, delivering her own brutal version of justice. But when Jude takes Coco's place to bring down a criminal empire, she makes one critical mistake.
She falls for Coco's wife.
As bodies pile up and alibis unravel, the city whispers about a killer who can be everyone and no one. Ashley is hunting the truth. Jude is hiding it. And Mariana is caught between them.
When the past resurfaces and the scientists behind Jude's transformation return to reclaim what they created, an uneasy alliance forms. Desire turns dangerous. Loyalty becomes a weapon. And one wrong choice could cost everything.
This lesbian psychological thriller blends crime, mystery, and supernatural suspense with a slow burn sapphic romance. Expect shocking twists, secret identities, vigilante justice, and morally grey women who refuse to play by the rules.
