Publisher's Summary
The idea is simple, vain, exciting. Tap the app, upload a picture of yourself, find your lookalike. Set up a meeting to see whether you have anything else in common.
When Ella and Jem meet, the physical resemblance is uncanny, but their lives couldn't be more different. One is from a tiny island in a deprived Northern community - pretty much the back of beyond - where she has no job, no boyfriend, limited prospects. The other is a London socialite, an aspiring actress living in a multi-million-pound mansion. By all appearances, she's living a charmed life, but she's got some serious sh*t to run away from. Both of them have.
Can either hide in her double's skin? And at what cost? Will it solve any of the problems or merely compound them?
Critic Reviews
"A tense and compelling story that courageously embraces contemporary themes ranging from new tech consumption to mental health...plays out as a treacherous and disturbing nightmare...will delight fans of Killing Eve." (Daily Mail)
"What a cracking debut! Tense, thrilling, thought provoking." (Alex Kane, author of No Looking Back)
"Page-turning suspense alongside exploring the dark recesses of the human mind...a taut and fast-paced thriller...[and] a beautiful meditation on how opportunities offered by youth, beauty and ambition crash into the hard realities of adulthood." (Joanne Metivier)
