My Parents Came Back from Vacation Different

My parents went away for the weekend. The people who came home look exactly like them. But something is terribly wrong.

Sixteen-year-old Tyler Mercer thought his parents' weekend vacation at Lake Bellwether would be completely ordinary.

Then they came home different.

His mother smiles at the wrong moments. His father asks questions he should already know the answers to. They watch Tyler while he sleeps, test his childhood memories, and whisper strange things outside his bedroom door.

At first, Tyler thinks they're hiding something about their trip.

Then he discovers a photograph of someone standing in his bedroom window.

Someone who looks exactly like him.

With the help of his friends June and Dax, Tyler begins investigating the mysterious lake where his parents spent the weekend. What they uncover is more terrifying than anything he imagined: decades of missing children, photographs that change, impossible memories, and creatures capable of stealing human faces.

But the deepest horror lies in Tyler's own past.

As the truth begins unraveling, Tyler discovers that his family may not be human, his memories may not belong entirely to him, and another boy with his face is desperate to come home.

Now something ancient is demanding that his family make a choice. And the wrong decision could erase someone from existence forever.

My Parents Came Back from Vacation Different is a chilling young adult supernatural horror novel filled with unsettling mysteries, terrifying doubles, sinister family secrets, psychological suspense, and shocking revelations.

Perfect for readers who love creepy impostors, reality-bending mysteries, unexpected twists, and stories that make them question whether the people closest to them are really who they seem.

Because sometimes the scariest thing isn't discovering that your family has been replaced. It's discovering that you might be the replacement.
