The Remedy

The Remedy is a companion book to The Program series. It had all new characters and a whole new story line. I am not one hundred percent sure but I believe the events took place before The Program.

Quinlan is a Closer, a highly disliked job among normal people. To let families heal and move past their grief Quin takes the persona of the girl who has died so the family can say goodbye. It is not an easy job and Closers constantly fear losing themselves into the persona of the people they are portraying. Considered one of the best at her job Quin takes pride in helping people move beyond their grief and get back to a normal life. All that changes when Quin is given a very unusual request, instead of the standard day or two she is to take on an assignment that requires her to be a deceased girl for two weeks. An unheard amount of time, as Quin struggles to remember who she is and keep up the persona for the family dark secrets start to emerge.

Again I was sick with a fever while reading The Remedy so my opinion might be due to that but I did like the story. I found it creative and original. I have not previously read any story line similiar. I do want to read The Epidemic.
