All is not as it seems. And neither is Jeffrey.

Emmeline Hopkins-Keller is in paradise, sharing a luxurious holiday on a tropical island with her husband Jeffrey and his family. But it’s hard to relax and enjoy it when she knows her marriage is in deep trouble.

One fateful night, a cataclysmic argument between Emmeline and Jeffrey sends him fleeing into the deep, dark forest. A day later he is still missing, leaving everyone shocked and bewildered.

Then, a miracle. Jeffrey turns up unharmed and wants to reconcile. But something is horribly wrong. He looks and sounds like Jeffrey, but Emmeline is 100% sure he's not the man she married. Even if everyone in his family is welcoming this stranger with open arms.

Which leaves her wondering, who exactly is this imposter? And how can he deceive everyone around him? And most of all – what are his plans for Emmeline?

Struggling to believe that everyone around her is lying, Emmeline begins to doubt herself, to lose her grip on reality. Only one thing is certain – when she finally uncovers the terrifying truth, her life will be changed forever.

Dripping with intrigue, The Doppelganger is an enthralling psychological thriller that will surprise you at every turn.

Really good!

Holds your attention from start to finish. Never quite sure what to believe. Well developed characters and a novel plot.

Good read. I enjoyed the plot very much. The twist at the end was great! Will read more from this author.

This was a good "story ". I hated it for the first 80%, then it took a turn for the better. Way too many inner thoughts from Emmeline. I didn't like the main characters name and the other characters names didn't seem to fit. The last 20% of the book was great!

Read, it is a good book. Twisted thriller, family affair that turns all around. Kept me reading and interested who did what.

Don't waste your time.

Easily could have been a short story, but was drawn out with a lot of repetitive internal dialog by the selfish, entitled bitch of a main character, whose name is the first word of about every chapter.

Bad bad writing

Reviewed in the United States on April 22, 2023

Verified Purchase

I normally don't leave reviews, but this book took me two weeks to finish and it was painful to do so . the amount of times the author said the same thing over and over again was insane . the wife's character had to be the most irritating and annoying character in a book I have ever read . he made her out to seem like a child the whole time . almost four hundred pages of basically the same thing over and over , this book was by far one of my least favorite books I have read this year .

Interesting Thriller

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2023

This was my second read by Cole Baxter. I fell in love with The Night Nurse and I couldn't wait to read his next book. This one was a little harder for me to read because of the main character. Emmeline is not a likeable character at all. But when you got closer to the end it really picked up and made the book worth the read. The Night Nurse was definitely better but this was good.

creatively written

Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2023

Verified Purchase

This book has a unique metaphorical theme with interesting twists and characters. It has obscure double meanings that match the plot making it interesting to try to figure out if the character is crazy along with her narcissism or if there actually is a double as well.

Not worth reading

Reviewed in Australia on July 21, 2023

Verified Purchase

This book was ridiculous. About 60% of it was just repetitive inner monologue from the main character. The twist at the end was rushed & disappointing, the main character was extremely unlikely & there was so many continuity problems throughout it. Could of been a awesome book because the premise was really good but it's a utter flop

oh dear. AVOID

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 17, 2023

Verified Purchase

Only 20 pages in and every page is a repeat of the previous one.

Why is Jeffrey annoyed with me?
Is it because of my bikinis
Does he want a divorce?
Of course he doesn’t want a divorce.

I haven’t got the stamina to read the other 300 pages.

A long winded storyline

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 31, 2023

Verified Purchase

When I saw this title, I thought that's interesting. However, I think it could have been ended in about 150 pages. It was very repetitive, with the wife saying the same things over and over again. How can the Fake Jeremy be almost identical to the real Jeremy when the parents were different people. A bit far fetched and a bit predictable. Was disappointed with the ending.

Oh dear...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 6, 2023

Verified Purchase

Hate not finishing books, which explains why I didn't just end the pain because this was undoubtedly the worst book I've read in years. A load of nonsense plot, terrible characters with the main one being the worst of all and all wrapped up in a really badly written style.

I can only assume the 3 - 5 star reviews are friends of the author because this is lucky to be getting 1 star frankly.

Don’t bother reading.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 27, 2023

Like click bait on social media. An exceptionally short story padded out with repetitive narrative most of which was rambling and poorly written. Totally unbelievable.
