A variation on the classic ventriloquist-and-dummy theme, where the dummy acquires a life of its own. This time, there's a supernatural element involving the migration of souls and hypnotism. The story is well developed, and the characters three-dimensional, even though a closer analysis reveals some weaknesses. I found myself quite affected by it afterwards - the dummy is seriously spooky.
