Niamh is in London to study drama for the summer, a dark haired Irish girl in the big city and hoping for the time of her life.
But girls start being attacked and they all look like Niamh, exactly like Niamh and soon she’s living a nightmare.
This is a fast paced mystery thriller that combines modern life in London with its historic past. The characters are complicated, who is safe, who is not and there is an underlying feeling of dread that something bad is stalking the streets and no-one is safe.
The attacks are vicious and brutal, the action really never lets up from the start and the whole book has incredible tension and foreboding throughout.
A very satisfying read with a great ending.

I really enjoyed this book. It was quite different from what I usually read and what I expected going into it, because of the supernatural aspects. I don't think I'll read many more supernatural mysteries, but it was a nice change of pace and a fun and quick read!
