SwitchFlipped — Greg Stolze

SwitchFlipped is a fast-paced, gritty urban fantasy novel set in the cracks behind what we think of as reality.

The love of Jasper's life has been a missing person for the last five years, so he's completely dumb-founded when she wakes him up in the middle of the night and drags him to bed. Twenty-four wild hours later she's gone again, as suddenly as she appeared, without so much as a hint of explanation. Jasper is left without answers, without hope, and without any idea what to do about his current girlfriend.

The only clue that Jasper has is a peculiar word, accidentally blurted: “Switchflipped.” Compelled to go digging for answers, he is slowly drawn deeper and deeper into the occult underground. Reality, it turns out, is a lot less real than he'd imagined. Jasper finds himself sinking into a lunatic world where people can turn into electricity, where the undead live suburban lives, and where nothing is impossible if you're prepared to pay the price.

Thrown into a vicious fight that he didn't seek and doesn't even really understand, Jasper has to look deep into himself to uncover his true nature. When your contemporaries include a woman who's also a building, a miracle-working saint, and one of the secret monarchs of American automobiles, the choice between love and power is harder than ever.
