The Twin's Daughter by Lauren Baratz-Logsted



DOES NOT A CHILD RECOGNIZE HER OWN MOTHER?

Lucy Sexton is stunned when a disheveled woman appears at the door one day...a woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to her own beautiful mother. The two women are identical twins, seperated at birth and raised in dramatically different circumstances: one as a member of high society, the other in a workhouse. Lucy's mother quickly resolves to give her sister the kind of life she has never known, and the transofrmation in Aunt Helen is remarkable. As time goes by, Lucy herself transforms into a young woman, falling in love with a childhood friend she was once sure she hated. But in what should be a happy household, something is very, very wrong. And as Aunt Helen and Lucy's mother become ever more indistinguishable, Lucy begins to suspect that her aunt's now familiar face may mask a chilling agenda.

== Once I read the jacket, I pretty much knew what it was going to be about. But I hated this book from the beginning. This book could of easily done without the turn of the century backdrop. That's why I hated it most. The only part I liked was Kit's letters to Lucy. I pushed through the book because it promised twists and turns and I had nothing else to read during my vacation at my in-laws.==
