Jubie Walker is not a normal fifteen-year-old-boy. He loves to read about history, listen to big-band music, and doesn't seem to connect with any of his classmates. He also has the strange dreams…Though he fights to stay awake, Jubie finds himself nearly nightly in a place filled with shadows and unexplained wonders. It's somehow 1942, and American soldiers are fighting the Japanese in World War II. Someone, or something, has attached itself to the very soul of Jubie Walker. While Jubie struggles with the haunting of the soldier's ghost, he must ask Is there such thing as transferal of a soul? Perhaps life is a never-ending saga with one soul and many bodies, bringing repressed memories to the surface when déjà vu comes around. One thing is certain. The soldier—and Jubie himself—will seek eternal peace until it is found.
I found this to be a very interesting novel, that touched on a subject I had not really read about; reincarnation. The way the author covered the topic was entertaining, educational and kept me turning the pages.
Along the way, we get to learn more about the tragic events in the Philipines near the beginning of WWII.
Spoiler: I do need to chat with the author to find out who Jubie's sister ended up with!
