The characters in this book are works of fiction. But, then, isn't
everyone . . . ? 1988, Pencalenick, Cornwall. At seventeen, Jason
wants much more from life than working at his father's pub and when
fate, in the form of twins Daisy and Bea and their small circle of
friends, offers him a glimpse of another, more glamorous, world,
he's determined to become a part of it. It's Daisy who Jason is
most entranced by, though. Everyone is: she's the sun around which
others orbit. The trouble with the sun, of course, is that those
who get too close risk getting burned - and by the end of the
summer, one of the group will be dead. 2018, Camberwell, London.
When famous actress Daisy Hemmings decides it's time to publish her
autobiography, she chooses James Tate to write it. James is a ghost
writer: it's his job to step into other people's shoes; to tell
their stories for them. And he's good at it. Very good. After all,
he's had years of practice at pretending to be someone he's not.
But what happens when past and present - and truth and lies -
collide? Joanna Nadin's The Double Life of Daisy Hemmings is an
unflinching, unforgettable novel about the people we are, the
people we'd like to be, and the price we pay for getting what we
want . . .
