Copycat Summary

Copycat by Gillian White

Jennie and Martha became friends when Jennie moved in next door to Martha. At least, Jennie thought they were friends. Jennie admired everything about Martha - her house, her gorgeous husband, her bohemian clothes and exotic children's names. And Martha seemed to take to motherhood so effortlessly and confidently, while for Jennie it was all such an effort. Martha tolerated Jennie, took her on holiday, helped her with the children - but all the time she was wondering how much longer she could stand living next to her. nd as time went on, the roles seemed to reverse. As Jennie became more confident, more successful, Martha's life seemed a bit of a mess. At times they seemed less like friend, more like sworn enemies. Their relationship became bitter, twisted - a relationship which only one of them could survive

Copycat Reviews

Gillian White writes truly scaring novels, one of which, The Sleeper, has recently been seen on BBC television. Jennie and Martha become close friends, though they are as different as chalk from cheese. Jennie is always worried and finds motherhood a huge effort. Only Martha delights her; and she tolerates this obsession even going on holiday together as families. As time passes the roles seem to reverse and Jennie becomes independent and successful while Martha's life crumbles. Then horror finally strikes. A truly chilling and hugely compelling tale; Gillian White at her very best.
