A great story to sample from Marceau's wider collection, Femina.
The fear of a double taking over your memories, personality and life was terrifying. I loved that straight away I was just as confused as Cassie and as the story developed it began to be unreliable... Who was the real one? What was going on? Who the heck was Sam?!

This was an impactful, short story.
Pick it up, give it a go & enjoy!
