"For ratcheting suspense, dynamic characters, and a master's touch in the courtroom, it's tough to beat Lisa Scottoline's Mistaken Identity."--David Baldacci
In the fourth riveting thriller in #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Scottoline's Rosato & Associates series, Bennie Rosato receives the shock of her life when she discovers she has an identical twin who also happens to be a murder suspect.
Accused of committing cold-blooded murder, Alice Connolly wants one lawyer to defend her: Bennie Rosato. But the no-nonsense Philadelphia criminal attorney isn't interested--until she meets the accused killer face to face--and can't believe what she sees. Alice claims she's Bennie twin--and the woman does bear an uncanny resemblance to her. But Bennie grew up an only child. She doesn't have a sister. Or does she?
Agreeing to take the case, Bennie plunges into the mystery of the murder and into the depths of her own past--a twisting search for justice and the truth that will keep the seasoned attorney guessing and leave readers breathless until the verdict is in.
Back Jacket
Bennie Rosato thought she had seen it all--until she meets her new client, Alice Connolly, who looks exactly like Bennie and tells her, "Hello, I'm your twin." A shocked Bennie can't deny the uncanny resemblance, but she grew up an only child and assumed she didn't have a sister, much less an identical twin. But Alice seems to know too much for it to be a scam, and Bennie can't walk away. She agrees to defend Alice on a murder charge and plunges into the mystery of the crime--unraveling a twisted skein of lies, greed, and danger that jeopardizes her livelihood and ultimately even her life. At the same time, she uncovers the truth of her own identity, a secret that will leave her questioning everything she ever knew about her family--and herself.
