SOMEONE LIKE ME

From the author of the million-copy bestseller 'The Girl With All the Gifts' comes a heart-stopping psychological thriller with a twist you won't see coming and a heroine you can't trust. The novel is an intoxicating thriller and a modern take on the Jekyll and Hyde tale set in a downmarket area of Pittsburgh called Larimer. Fran Watts, a 16 year old girl, was kidnapped a decade ago and kept in a derelict motel by a mad killer called the Shadowman. She was found apparently unharmed but with a defective memory, and at school befriends Zac, whose mother Liz is a victim of domestic abuse. It is in the very opening chapter that she discovers her superpowers of self-defence. We won't spoil it with any more plot line! There are two sides to every story. Liz Kendall wouldn't hurt a fly, even when times get tough, and she's devoted to bringing up her kids in a loving home. But there's another side to Liz, one that's dark and malicious. She will do anything to get her way - no matter how extreme. And when her alter-ego takes control, the consequences are devastating. 501pp, paperback with Extras.
