Description

Belinda Johansson is a woman frantic. Deep in research for her magnum opus - a definitive account of the doppelganger in classic gothic fiction - she fails to notice the echoes of these ghoulish tales disturbingly close at hand. For not only is the cleaning lady taking over her life, but the identity of her husband, Stefan, is also in question. Is he a harmless geneticist from Sweden, or actually a cunning clone And what on earth has the rat circus to do with any of this

GOING LOCO is a real onion of a book - just peel back the layers and weep with laughter.

Reviews

Searchers after lightness, brightness and wit will find all three ... a plot whose coincidences and misunderstandings outnumber those in a P.G. Wodehouse novel - Maureen Owen, Daily Mail

Hilarious ... as witty as a knot garden ... Lots of good jokes. I loved it - Valerie Grove, The Times

Full of beans ... wonderful dash and confidence - Daily Telegraph

Witty, surprising, oddly compassionate and hugely assured - Sunday Times

Lyrical comedy ... wonderfully inventive jeu d'esprit - Independent
