Two young ladies - very different, but physically identical - meet at a boarding school once attended by Jane Austen. Joan Aiken's Deception is an engrossing regency novel is perfect for fans of the major Netflix romantic drama series, Bridgerton.

Self-righteous Louisa wants to escape her grand family life in Northumberland and become a missionary in India. Imaginative and quiet Alvey has no family and only longs for peaceful independence to complete her novel.

So when Louisa suggests swapping identities it seems like the perfect plan: Alvey will have a peaceful country manor in which to write her book and Louisa will be free to voyage across the globe. But when Alvey becomes a beloved and indispensable member of her extraordinary new family, how will they view the return of the more quarrelsome Louisa?

Joan Aiken weaves a complicated plot of deception and identity, peopled with strong female characters, in this unique historical romance.

'Joan Aiken's invention seemed inexhaustible, her high spirits a blessing, her sheer storytelling zest a phenomenon. She was a literary treasure, and her books will continue to delight for many years to come' - Philip Pullman, author of His Dark Materials
