>!Ijust finished reading *Rock Paper Scissors* and *Daisy Darker* and noticed some similarities.!<
>!Here’s what I noticed in both stories:!<
>!A girl has her plaits cut off while she sleeps (Robin in *RPS*; Lily in *DD*).!<
>!Both mention a magnolia tree being planted!<
>!In *RPS* we learn that Henry Winter liked to use place names that include the word “black”. *DD* takes place near Blacksand Bay.!<
>!Both feature a black Labrador named Bob (in *DD* this is the dog Nana had before she got Poppins).!<
>!The note from the author’s agent at the beginning of *DD* mentions the agent received it wrapped in brown paper and string, which is how Henry Winter (and Robin writing as Henry) delivered his manuscripts.!<
>!I thought it was strange because *RPS* (and presumably her other works) aren’t supernatural, but Daisy is a literal ghost, and Henry Winter (and Robin) did write horror/supernatural novels.!<
>!Could *Daisy Darker* is the novel Robin says she wrote in *Rock Paper Scissors*?!<
