WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOU FOUND OUT THAT YOUR WHOLE LIFE IS BASED ON A LIE?

Vicky Collins has a seemingly enviable life. She is a successful agent for the FBI and lives with her social media star and real estate entrepreneur boyfriend in an upscale neighborhood of San Diego.

But appearances can be deceiving.

When Vicky is recruited to an elite unit at the FBI to investigate a serial killer piggybacking on the murders of other serial killers, her life begins to spiral out of control.

To complicate things further for the young special agent, a routine background check at the FBI reveals a sibling DNA match - a brother she didn't know existed. Determined to unravel the mysteries of her past and to find her long lost brother, Vicky retraces the boy's footsteps through the foster care system, uncovering the abuse and neglect he suffered growing up. The secrets she unveils are more monstrous and terrifying than she ever imagined, and a new truth about her childhood threatens to consume her.

Then the Piggyback Serial Killer strikes again, but this time, Agent Collins has multiple suspects - including members of her own family.

If I Had Two Lives was inspired by a story of a young woman in a vegetative state who was sexually assaulted and impregnated by an employee of the care facility. It's an emotionally-charged and thought-provoking psychological thriller about the ripple effects of childhood experiences and our obsession in seeking the truth that will leave you wanting to research your own family history.
