The Other You is a tense psychological thriller about a desperate mother who gets a clone of herself to help with her baby. It's perfect for readers of Gillian McAllister, Sarah Pinborough and fans of the TV shows HUMANS and SEVERANCE.

Elena and Stuart Roberts are struggling. Their newborn baby, Olive, has colic, and neither of them have managed to sleep for more than three hours a night for the last month. Something is about to break. Stuart decides enough is enough. They need help.

Help presents itself in the form of More You, a company which offers a clone of you. For a substantial fee. But a clone of Elena might be the answer to all their problems; someone to be up all night, someone whom Olive won't reject. Whilst Elena is hesitant, Stu can't resist the lure of sleep and the return of some normality to his life, and so, a week later, they are bringing their new addition to the family home.

Elena's clone settles in well, bringing balance and assistance where needed. As the weeks progress, she begins to mimic Elena, adopting her habits, her mannerisms—something which More You insists is all a part of the adaptation process.

But Elena isn't so sure. And soon, neither is Stu. They are both starting to live in fear of the stranger in their home. When one night, the clone's presence leads to a terrible mistake, Elena must make a decision which will change her life forever.
