<b>An atmospheric speculative suspense novel following a mysterious society offering its members the chance to relive the death of another person—and the self-destructive woman determined to uncover its secrets<br> <br>This ambitious, genre-bending debut is perfect for fans of time-travel fiction including Matt Haig’s <i>The Midnight Library</i> and Gareth Brown’s <i>The Book of Doors</i><br><br>A Publisher's Marketplace Spring/Summer 2026 Buzz Book!<br> <br>A <i>People </i>Best Books of February 2026!<br> <br>An Allstora Shelf Care Society Book Club Pick!</b><br><br>For twenty years, Greta Davenport has lived with the guilt of surviving the accident that killed her parents. She’s tested the limits of her own mortality ever since, but little gives her the dopamine rush she craves. Not until the night she almost drunkenly crashes her car into a tree, and a peculiar blank card slides under her front door—an invitation to the Found Object Society. What she discovers there is beyond comprehension: an opulent, subterranean playground filled with aisles of objects from different eras and regions of the world. Pick an object and go on a <i>voyage </i>to relive the final moments of the person who died holding it, along with an unparalleled, irreplicable high. Greta’s hooked, but she can't quiet her questions about the society and its enigmatic creators, the answers to which have implications far beyond her growing dependence on the voyages. Death is addictive, and what she uncovers will put her entire life into question.<br><br>A fever dream of a novel with episodic, time-traveling chapters told from multiple points of view, <i>The Found Object Society </i>examines the depraved whims of the ultrarich and the breadth of unresolved trauma—all while asking how grief and the choices we make in its aftermath can change the course of our lives. Michelle Maryk’s wholly original and ambitious debut opens an impeccably wrought speculative world of greed, power, and destiny.
