Neuroscientist Evelyn Malcolm has built her life on reason: formulas, clean data, the illusion of control. But when the man she secretly loves turns up dead, everything implodes. She finds herself accused of his murder and interrogated alongside her estranged twin Vivian, a volatile mystery writer and wayward addict, whose matching DNA is found at the scene. But which sister committed the crime? Their stories don't match. Their alibis are shaky. And Detective Ed Schott, haunted by demons of his own, is hell bent on getting to the bottom of things...no matter how far down he has to go. When the sisters are abducted and thrust into a kaleidoscopic world of psychedelic drugs, buried trauma, and whispered CIA experiments, Evelyn begins to doubt everything-her research, her memories, even her sanity. Haunted by what she can't remember and terrified of what she might, she's forced to reconcile with the sister she doesn't trust to clear her name and stop a looming catastrophe. As science and delusion blur, Evelyn faces a terrifying question: what if the real monster is the one wearing her face? Propulsive, hallucinatory, and darkly funny, My Twin the Murderer is a mind-bending thriller that will leave you guessing until the final page.
Lindsay Kent, aka The Hallucinarrator, is a multimedia storyteller whose work explores the luminous edges of consciousness and culture. Over the past decade, she's directed three international feature films, produced a Hulu documentary on LGBTQ families, and created branded films for nonprofits and Fortune 500s alike. Her 2014 documentary Going Furthur retraced the arc of America's counterculture through a psychedelic lens, and her docuseries, Plant Medicine, follows an Ayahuasca retreat center in Costa Rica. A few years ago, Lindsay returned to her first love-fiction. Blending the vision of a filmmaker with the curiosity of a psychonaut, her stories blur the boundaries between science and spirit, cinema and literature. At the heart of her work lies a singular mission: to bridge the gap between reality and the beyond, welcoming more seekers into the mystery through stories anyone can access and everyone can feel. She lives in Half Moon Bay, California, with her husband Jim and their four- legged comic relief, Bodhi. Her twin lives five minutes away-and so, in a very real sense, so does she.
