Run, Girl, Run! - Paula Steel - Bog

Move over Villanelle. There's a new psycho girl in town. Only, this time, there are two of her. Well, kind of. If you like your stories full of murder, suspense, twists, turns and surprises, led by a strong female character on the run, leaving a trail of carnage behind her, with a gross male monster of a cop in hot pursuit, then Paula Steel's debut novel is for you. Each chapter is a story in itself, so you can consume it in bite-size chunks, as a distraction on the daily commute. Or take it on holiday and read on the beach or by the pool. Or read a story before bed. The plot, in four lines: One girl on the run. One relentless pursuer. Both are killers. Which one will survive? More about the central character: Alice is easily bored with life. And envies the lives of others. But, she has a solution. Whenever she sees someone whose life she finds more interesting than hers, she takes it. Which means eliminating them and taking their place. As there can't be two versions of the same person, can there? Try and keep up with Alice through the seven lives in this book - she's hard to spot sometimes - as she jumps from life to life, pursued by a hunter as murderous as she is. Look out for not one but two Alices in the book. And the weirdness with the fingers? Creepy! Not to mention the forks: stranger still.
