โฆ Synopsis
Melanie Stryder refuses
to fade away. Our world has been invaded by an unseen enemy. Humans
become hosts for these invaders, their minds taken over while their
bodies remain intact and continue their lives apparently unchanged. Most
of humanity has succumbed.
When Melanie, one of the few
remaining "wild" humans, is captured, she is certain it is her end.
Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie's body, was
warned about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming
emotions, the glut of senses, the too-vivid memories. But there was one
difficulty Wanderer didn't expect: the former tenant of her body
refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.
Wanderer probes
Melanie's thoughts, hoping to discover the whereabouts of the remaining
human resistance. Instead, Melanie fills Wanderer's mind with visions of
the man Melanie loves - Jared, a human who still lives in hiding.
Unable to separate herself from her body's desires, Wanderer begins to
yearn for a man she has been tasked with exposing. When outside forces
make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off on a dangerous
and uncertain search for the man they both love.
