As the story goes on, find out what happened to get the two Jessicas in the situation they’re in, and what they’ do to get out of that situation. I liked Star Splitter a lot, but one thing I will mention is that it had a lot of foul language/swearing in it, so if you are uncomfortable with that sort of thing, I would not recommend it. But other than that, I thought the book was pretty good!
