Names Have Been Changed

In Names Have Been Changed, an international bestseller and highly anticipated debut novel, the story follows Ophir—not her real name—as she launches a confessional podcast recounting her tumultuous years living on the run. Starting from a petty crime in Singapore, Ophir adopts false identities and traverses the globe, from a Tokyo hostess bar to a Colorado mountain town, all while sharing her humorous yet vulnerable reflections on her crimes and deep-seated regrets. As she explores themes of immigration, belonging, and identity amid danger and dislocation, Ophir faces an unexpected, high-stakes decision that could alter her life forever.
