Heady, creepy, paranoid, The Indecipherables is a delirious doubles-twist on the doppelgänger tale that will leave you questioning the identities of those closest to you. Maybe don't let them get too close.
--Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie A pair of identical twins reconnect on a road trip where they realize they're being stalked--by themselves--in this unsettling, imaginative tribute to Hitchcock's Psycho and Vertigo Meet Ava and Brin, identical twins on a road trip down the Pacific Coast Highway, from San Francisco to Joshua Tree, in honor of their late mother. This is more than a pilgrimage--it's a reunion after a year-long rift, after Ava almost died of a mysterious illness. From their first night on the road, the sisters encounter strangers who insist they've met them before--a waitress who is certain she served them a few days ago, a mechanic who shows Ava and Brin a picture of themselves driving a different car from earlier that day. Ava and Brin realize that another pair of twins, seemingly identical to them in name and appearance, are stalking them. The cat-and-mouse game between the four identical women quickly devolves into something sinister and supernatural as the lines between them begin to blur. Doppelgängers, prophetic hallucinations, an unwavering fog--what do these shadow twins want? And what are Ava and Brin hiding? The Indecipherables is a fever dream of a debut novel, a journey into the weird and uncanny, and an exploration of what horrors arise when we keep secrets from those we love--and from ourselves.
