Average
people dealing with normal problems find themselves living a
nightmare. Tess and her ex-husbland, Nick are trying to co-parent
their daughter. The relationship is uneasy but fairly cordial.
However, when she sees him on a street in Boston, she thinks he
ignores her, and it makes her furious.
Frank
is battling alcoholism and the loss of his dream of being a crime
reporter. He thinks he may have found an out when he meets his
violent double in his own home.
When
it turns out that Nick is in New Hampshire not Boston when Tess saw
him, she wants to investigate. Her friend Lili agrees to help her, and
it becomes even stranger when Lili also finds that she has a double.
Their search leads them to an elegant townhouse on Beacon Hill where
events begin to spin out of control.
If
you like ghosts, paranormal, and horror movies, you love this book.
Seeing your double can be frightening, but when evil surrounds you, it
becomes a nightmare from which you can't wake.
The
plot is fast paced and cleverly written taking advantage of the idea
of doppelgängers with a new twist. The characters feel like real
people which makes the horror stronger. I enjoyed the book, but
unless you're a hard core horror fan, I wouldn't suggest reading it
when you're alone on a stormy night.
I
received this book from St. Martin's Press for a review.
