Twice the beauty. Twice the evil.
“Fans know what to expect from Cooney . . . bullet-train pacing and entertaining prose.” —Kirkus Reviews
Mary Lee and Madrigal are identical twin sisters, exactly alike in every way. They’re so similar in personality and appearance that they often seem to meld into one person. Then their parents decide to separate them. While Mary Lee feels lost and alone at boarding school, Madrigal is flourishing. She’s gorgeous, popular, and even has a boyfriend who loves her.
Lonely and unhappy, Mary Lee begins to wish for her sister’s perfect life. But when her secret desire comes disastrously true during a weekend ski trip, Mary Lee learns more about Madrigal’s new life than she could have ever dreamed . . . or feared.
