The Likeness

By Tana French

This is a sequel to her debut novel "In the Woods." While it has the same characters, it does not pick up where the last novel left off. Instead, it starts with an entirely new story plot and interweaves elements from her first novel throughout each chapter. As a law enforcement officer, I want to point out that the plot isn't entirely feasible, but it makes for a darn good read!
Cassie Maddox is an officer in the domestic violence department in Dublin, Ireland. Previously, she was an undercover agent in a college until her cover was blown and she had to be extracted quickly. Now, there's been a murder in a nearby town and to Cassie's surprise, the murdered girl is using the i.d. of her past undercover profile. Not to mention, the deceased is a dead ringer for Cassie. Cassie is pulled back into the murder squad and undercover world while she tries to figure out who this girl was and why she was using Cassie's profile.

Lately...no reading!!

I'm so sorry for the lack of recent posts! I recently switched to the midnight shift (midnight to 8 AM) and have had a hard time finding time to read. As soon as I get a set schedule, I should be able to make it to the library or Barnes and Noble for some reading material. Standby for more reviews!!!
