Death of a Doppelgänger

Bag om Death of a Doppelgänger

Identity theft isn't new - it was just so much more insidious back in the day... Todd McWhirter passes an idyllic student existence in the early 1980s as a Cambridge undergraduate - an idyll marred only by the unsettling intrusion of Robert Grieve, sometime friend, sometime stalker. Grieve's suicide casts a shadow over the lives of all who knew him. Then, years later, Todd comes across another suicide, a disgraced City banker who apparently embodied all the values of Thatcherite Britain - and who bore an uncanny resemblance to Robert Grieve... "Mackintosh engages with the written word as a creative expression of some cleansing fire of the spirit, an act of atonement that builds rather than destroys, an orgasmic confession joining pain to redemption that instills a sense of almost voyeuristic guilt in the reader who will likely be unable to look away: perhaps fascinated, perhaps repulsed, perhaps changed... and certainly never bored." - Nicholas Shipman "Paul StJohn Mackintosh is one of those writers who just seems to quietly get on with the business of producing great fiction." - Paul Michaels, This is Horror
