Mistaken Identity

Author: Lisa Scottoline
Published: July 23rd 2019 by Harper Paperbacks
Format: Paperback, 592 pages
Genre: Legal Procedural
Series: Rosato & Associates #4

Leaping back into the past I thought I would pick up where I left off with this series. Lisa Scottoline has drawn a challenging character with Bennie Rosato -- tough in the courtroom but soft when it comes to her mother’s battle with dementia.

These two sides of Bennie collide when she is called in to handle the case of an assumed cop-killer. There is no denying that Alice Connolly looks like Bennie, but when Alice claims that they are twins separated at birth, there is only one person able to confirm this and she is too far gone to explain.

Since Bennie’s law practice specializes in taking down dirty officer, there are very few places she can turn and when this seems to be getting the best of her, and a “sister”, since the DNA testing is not back yet, Bennie has to pull out all the stops and hope that she has the right client to go after the corruption that is setting them both up for a fall.

This is a tightly wound book that will take some time to unravel, but when it comes to Lisa Scottoline and the Rosato & Associates Law Firm, you are in for a treat and even a smile to two.
