    About this audiobook

    “A humdinger”
    —USA Today

    “Ratcheting suspense, dynamic characters, and a master’s touch”
    —David Baldacci, New York Times bestselling author of The Sixth Man

    With the spellbinding crime fiction masterwork, Mistaken Identity, Lisa Scottoline rocketed onto the New York Times bestseller list—and she’s remained there ever since! A stunning tale of mystery and suspense, this classic from the beloved, Edgar® Award-winning author once again leads readers down the gritty streets of Philadelphia and into the offices of the law firm of Rosato & Associates. When a new client who’s been accused of murder—and who bears an astonishing resemblance to Bennie Rosato—asks the crusading criminal defense attorney to take her case, Bennie finds herself entangled in a sticky web of murder, corruption, and violence that threatens to reveal the shocking truth about her own past. If you haven’t read Lisa Scottoline before, Mistaken Identity will prove to you what her many fans already know: nobody does it better!

      Wish that scribd had the unabridged books available, but they don't. <><
    • 2/5
      I have loved all of this author’s books except this one. It lacked story development. It rushed through the legal process that had no bones. It brushed over the hit on the twin as though saying, well, this character needs to be wrapped up. Same with the father. The opposite of a rich story, which is her norm, is this poor story.

      Was disappointed in this book but I will try others from this author

      READ IN DUTCH

      I wasn't aware of Lisa Scottoline's books before I encountered a copy of Mistaken Identities at a sale. This was in a period where I read a lot of detective/suspense books so I wanted to give it a try.

      For me, this one was ok. I don't think it had a very compelling story or gave a very good view on law procedures, but it wasn't too bad either. Although, I still haven't read the other book by Lisa Scottoline that I own.
    • 4/5
      Bennie Rosato has to take on a case to defend a woman, Alice Connolly, from a charge of murder. Alice claims she is Bennie's twin, although Bennie has never known about a twin. Police corruption, drugs, murders, and boxing all play a role in this novel. Enjoyable.
    • 5/5
      This was an excellent story. About finding out that you have a twin. You are an lawyer and are called to defend your twin.

      An AReCafe Top Pick!

      When journalist Kansas Collins agreed to accompany her best friend to a Paranormal Convention, little did she realize she would meet her destiny, Jett Walker, the star of a popular television series. His ex-fiancée walked away after years of being together, but a ray of sunshine enters his bleak existence in the form of "a pretty, brown-skinned woman with almond-shaped, hazel-colored eyes". One night turns into a committed relationship, but Jett's past is threatening to derail his future.

      Mistaken Identity was such a pleasure to read, I'm looking forward to reading it again and again. It features a white actor who has a legitimate claim to fame yet remains down to earth and approachable. Jett is not jaded by his fame and good looks and is a genuinely nice person. Kansas is a reporter with a quick wit and earthy beauty. She doesn't fall into the typical norm of the Hollywood babe and prefers to wear her curves proudly. Jett is only too happy to meet a woman who is not impressed by his world and doesn't feel the need to conform to its standards. As long as Jett loves Kansas just the way she is, she is fine with not being a size two. He's caring, giving and gorgeous and I'm jealous of Kansas.

      I loved this story from the beginning. While serious issues such as anorexia and unplanned pregnancies are addressed, the romantic side is not overshadowed and there are many instances when humor takes over. It's not a very long read, but a very satisfying one and can be completed in one sitting. I've read other novels by Colt but I must say this is definitely one of my favorites.

    • 4/5
      What a thriller! This is full of many twists and is difficult to figure out right up to the end of the book.
    • 3/5
      Interesting legal procedural. Criminal lawyer finds out she has a twin on trial for murder who is a life long criminal.
