As luck would have it, she finds herself in a duplex in Paris, complete with a view of the Eiffel Tower. Paris is everything she has ever dreamed of and her first day there is idyllic. But, the next morning she meets with a rude awakening: as the police break down the apartment door, Sophie discovers she is sharing her apartment with a headless corpse.

The walls close in. Sophie hasn't only switched flats...She's also switched identities... (Original Title: Switch)
