The Pretender Person by Margaret Cameron is a novel that explores the life of a woman named Rachel, who has always felt like she doesn't quite fit in. As a child, Rachel was constantly teased and bullied for being different, and as an adult, she struggles to find her place in the world. She has a job she hates, a boyfriend who doesn't understand her, and a family who seems to have given up on her.One day, Rachel discovers that she has a half-sister, a woman named Lily who seems to have it all together. Lily is successful, confident, and beautiful, and Rachel can't help but feel envious of her. However, as Rachel gets to know Lily, she realizes that things aren't as perfect as they seem. Lily is hiding a dark secret, and Rachel finds herself drawn into a dangerous world of deception and betrayal.As Rachel tries to navigate this new world, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about herself and her family. She starts to wonder if she is the only one pretending to be someone she's not, and if there is any hope for her to find her true identity.The Pretender Person is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that delves into themes of identity, family, and the masks we wear to hide our true selves. It is a must-read for anyone who has ever felt like they don't quite fit in, and who has ever wondered what it would be like to be someone else.1911. Illustrated. The book begins: Kate, My Dear, Has a great surgeon ever prescribed you as a sedative? Were you ever regarded, in a perfectly calm, dispassionate, scientific way, as a benign substitute for drugs, more somnific than bromides and less dangerously seductive than morphine? And as such, have you ever found yourself suddenly and intimately involved in the treatment of a man with whom your previous acquaintance had been entirely official and impersonal? Because that is what has just happened to me, and serious as the situation seems to be, I am unable to convince myself of its reality. To me it is alternately either a farce or a nightmare, and it seems at all times wholly without reason or precedent, at once too tragical, too ridiculous, and too utterly preposterous to be true.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
