In the dusk of the middle ages, the hated son Sorren transforms. He is the body thief. Alongside figures of fact and fable, from stolen body to body, he roams the centuries addicted to the rush of identity within. In the modern era a methodical IRS agent unearths an age-old chain of transferred wealth, madness, and murder. Over four decades he chases a phantom through the shadows. To catch him the Taxman must come to believe the unimaginable. Today at a troubled actor's sprawling Malibu estate the two will collide. It is there in that sunny place one man will find his end and the other his destiny. In the Flesh is a horrific tale of human obsession, the makings of evil, and the danger in getting the things we want.
