Don't look too closely into the mirror.

It may look back...

The village of Harrowmere is plagued by strangeness: foggy boglands, eerie wraithlights and the legend of Grasping Jack. So how could local boy Dunn Caulkner have known that the darkest threat of all would come from a mirror?

Nobody questions the travelling salesman touting looking glasses. Nor do Dunn and his friends see any harm in a ritual said to reveal your true self. After all, what could be dangerous about a reflection?

The answer is everything...

Praise for Lykewise:

'This is everything I could ask for from a middle-grade horror... Sophisticated, spooky and smart' Jack Mackay, author of Gloam

'This eerie work of genius proves why Darren Simpson is the king of middle-grade horror!' Elle McNicoll, author of A Kind of Spark

'Perfect for fans of the Aveline Jones series, Lykewise will leave you thinking twice before you look in the mirror' Scope for Imagination
