Opis

In this prelude to the Torture Magic series, Jennifer Saunders discovers something: having multiple personalities sucks. At least, that's how Jennifer feels even before disaster occurs in her lab. Jen has a right to feel frustrated, having been through a lifetime of emotional turmoil. Having seen her best friend murdered and buried at a young age, Jen's mind created separate personalities to cope with the trauma. Coping with the feelings and emotions of such a life is not easy, particularly when Jen begins research experiments with an alien form of life that is supposedly comatose. The experiment is a precursor to disaster that Jen survives, protected by the illness that has impaired her life. Her elderly research team leader, Oscar, and a nurse, Anissa, also are alive. Of course, alive is a relative term in this case as it becomes apparent they're physically dead with their souls fused to Jen's consciousness. Jen is not just the sole survivor but a 'soul' survivor. An ordinary person couldn't cope, but Jen can, understanding these strangers must be integrated into her life just as her child personas were earlier in life. Furthermore, the attack has given her telekinetic abilities, talents that are probably her only hope against the now conscious and hostile alien life form. With the aid of her new spiritual personalities and two old friends from her past, Jen struggles to stop the alien from breeding and creating havoc in the mountains outside San Diego. The Soul Survivor details the trials and tribulations of the brilliant young research scientist as she learns that multiple personality is really about one thing: survival.
