COPYCAT - ALEX LAKE, 7TH SEPTEMBER
The gripping new psychological thriller from the bestselling author of After Anna and Killing Kate.
When an old friend gets in touch, Sarah Havenant discovers that there are two Facebook profiles in her name. One is hers. The other, she has never seen.
But everything in it is accurate. Photos of her friends, her husband, her kids. Photos from the day before. Photos of her new kitchen. Photos taken inside her house.
And this is just the beginning. Because whoever has set up the second profile has been waiting for Sarah to find it. And now that she has, her life will no longer be her own…
Claire's Review ⭐⭐⭐⭐
After previously reading After Anna by Alex Lake and loving it, I didn't hesitate with the chance to read Copycat. Excited to see what else this author could do and I wasn't disappointed.
Copycat is the story of Sarah, who receives a friend request on Facebook from an old school friend Rachel who is confused as there are two profiles for Sarah. One is her real profile but the other is a fake profile, however, it contains photos of her family and her home...photos she didn't take. Slowly things begin to take a sinister turn for Sarah when she finds out that it doesn't stop at the Facebook profile. This stalker has been impersonating her in other aspects of her life, emails, hand writing and even her Amazon account.
This story really drew you in, it's very well written and very creepy and really makes you think about what could really happen with social media. This is not a predictable story and keeps you guessing with lots of twists and turns until the very last page. I did find the story a little slow, to begin with, and was worried I wouldn't find it as well written as After Anna, but I'm really glad I pushed on as it turned out to be a very intriguing story! I cannot wait to see what the author comes up with next.
