Alter Ego: Alter Ego: My journeys beyond human boundaries (Paperback)

France, 1745. A boy wakes up in a forest on the outskirts of Paris with no memory of his past.
Through a fortuitous accident, he discovers he possesses an inexplicable power: the ability to transmigrate into the bodies of others. The young man turns his singular gift into a sinister profession at the service of the Freemasons and other powerful figures of eighteenth-century France, his life intertwining with famous characters of the time.
In an increasingly fast-paced adventure that spans more than a century, he finds himself caught up in many historical events, including the French Revolution.
Alter Ego takes us on exotic journeys involving sex, ill-fated love, high-ranking friendships and powerful enemies who plot in the shadows. Culminating in a final twist, the book has an enjoyable esoteric flavour, and gives us a glimpse into one of the darkest periods of history.

The creation of Alter Ego required more than two years of historical research. Many of the characters, even the secondary ones, really did exist and are accurately represented during their direct involvement in the plot, allowing the reader the pleasure of digging deeper into the details and discovering connections and subterfuges hidden within the story.
