About this listen
A woman plunges into consciousness in the midst of what seems like someone else’s life, sending her on a quest to discover who she is and to craft an identity that makes sense within her current circumstances. As she digs into the mystery of her life, she uncovers a top-secret government organization plotting world domination and a clandestine vigilante organization dedicated to destroying it and is caught between these warring factions.
Nobody in her new world is exactly who they appear to be, including herself. Identity, she learns, is complicated and inseparable from the body in which it resides.

Even though Cora hasn't spoken to him in years, his celebrity has caught the attention of the press, the internet, the paparazzi, and the government - and with him in hiding, that attention is on her. She neither knows nor cares whether her father's leaks are a hoax and wants nothing to do with him.

The Brink is Deadly!
A woman awakens with no memory of who she is or was, her mind a blank slate. Desperate for answers, she uncovers fragments of her past — only to realize the truth is far more dangerous than she imagined. As her identity takes shape, so does a chilling revelation: her every move is being watched, her thoughts manipulated, and the people she trusts are not trustworthy at all. Nothing — and no one — is what they seem.
Rick Moskovitz expertly immerses listeners in the intriguing world of consciousness transfer. Building on familiar characters, he skillfully places them in high-stakes, life-or-death situations that keep listeners on edge. The narrative is richly layered yet easy to follow, thanks to Moskovitz’s sharp attention to detail, smooth dialogue, and captivating plot twists. His character development remains strong, evolving naturally with the story’s shifting timeline.
Amy Johnson’s exceptional narration enhances the experience, capturing each character’s essence with precision and delivering emotion and tension with clarity and energy. Her performance keeps listeners fully engaged from start to finish.
This second installment in the trilogy offers a thrilling blend of deception, mystery, and thought-provoking insights into a future that may be closer than we imagine.

Great Sci-Fi thriller
Brink of Life is the second book in the trilogy with the same name by former clinical psychiatrist, turned talented Thriller and Sci-fi author, Rick Moskovitz. After I listened to and reviewed his other recently released audiobook, Shared Madness, I jumped at the opportunity to dive into this new, interesting series.
Although this is book 2 in the Brink of Life Trilogy, it can be experienced as a standalone listen. Fast-paced, well-written and mysterious, Brink of Life #2 follows the actions of a woman who has woken up in someone else’s body and tries to understand what has happened. I won’t tell you anything more about the story, for fear of spoilers, which I hate!
I’m sure that I’ll figure out more after I get my hands on the first novel, but as I only listen to audiobooks, that will have to wait.
The narration is top notch, with a calm, balanced performance, delivered beautifully by Amy J. Johnson. Amy’s storytelling skills come in handy as she must create the highest level of immersion for such a captivating story. With a clear talent for voices, she manages to keep every character clearly differentiated in the listener’s mind.
If you are looking for a completely immersive narrative experience that will make you wonder where the past 5 hours of your life have gone, pick up this Sci-Fi Thriller and you’ll be left wanting for more, just as I was.
