Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
If you are looking for a book with suspense, a hint of the supernatural and a cliff-hanger ending, then The Lion Tamer's Daughter could be the book for you. Spanning borders, continents and the realms of the unknown, this fast-paced tale propels you along to its extraordinary conclusion.

Melly and Melanie are mirror images of each other. Are they twins separated at birth? Or is something more sinister afoot? It's a race against time and destiny to discover the truth, for if the two meet before the allotted time, who knows what their fate might be?: "Do you know what a doppelganger is? We did a play about one four years ago... the hero had this double who seemed to be some kind of fiend, who stalked him, and if ever they came face to face the hero was going to die ... I know it sounds stupid as soon as you say it, but...". Peter Dickinson's handling of this fantastical storyline is so convincing, though, that it doesn't sound stupid at all.

An accomplished writer of adult and children's fiction, his other books include Touch and Go, Tulku and The Kin. --Nicola Perry

Product Description
Keith has moved, leaving his best friend Melly behind. Then he meets Melanie. She and Melly are so alike they could be the same girl. But they're also entirely different. They are in fact mirror images - can Keith find the truth?

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Book, 28 Dec 1999
By A Customer
This was a great book one of the best I have ever read! It was so full of mystery and suspense. It at first seemed to me to be farely predictable and I thought I knew exactly what was going to happen. However I got it all wrong (of course) and it turned out much better then I thought!
