Title: Schrödinger's baby
Description: "Nihilistic Petruchio. Rational Juliet. Kerry the Temptress. A reckless student house in Glasgow, Scotland, where beds are shared as freely as drugs, liquor and cigarettes. It's all fun and games until Juliet finds a corpse under the stair case - which promptly disappears.".

"The quantum theory of Schrodinger's cat has always appealed to Juliet's scientific mind. A cat, locked in a box with a radioactive atom and a vial of poison gas has a fifty-fifty chance of emerging alive. Until the door is opened, the cat inhabits both states of "alive" and "dead." Does our perception of the cat determine its fate? Polar opposites, Juliet understands, can coexist: life and death, good and evil, truth and lies. Juliet starts to wonder if the body she spotted was ever really there.

And the closer she comes to finding out, the more rapidly her roommates' lives begin to deteriorate. Finally, Juliet realizes that the truth she is looking for might better have been left in the grave."--BOOK JACKET.
