(4) YA Josie discovers a parallel world accessible every twelve hours at 3:59, and, running from a painful breakup, switches places with her counterpart, Jo. Jo's world, however, is overrun by deadly night-monsters possibly connected to Jo/Josie's mother's quantum experiments. Josie's romantic concerns are soon tiresome in the face of life-or-death peril, but the bait-and-switch plot, especially the parental doppelgangers, offers ample thrills.
