Tad Spencer has it all: a mansion, servants, every toy imaginable. But one day, he wishes he was someone else. Suddenly, he wakes up as Bob Snarby, trapped in a filthy, corrupt carnival world of hostile criminals and mysterious fortune tellers. As Tad navigates this new, dingy reality, he uncovers a dangerous secret that could expose a shadowy enemy. In this sardonic swap, Tad must untangle the truth before he's stuck in his new life forever.
