Title: Not her usual fare....she's better than this!
Review: I've read most of Scottoline's books and liked them. They're not Grisham or Turow, but they're good for a couple of nights' reading.This particular offering, however, never pulled me into the story, nor did I for one minute believe that Bennie Rosato -- tough girl that she is -- would fall for such a con artist as her "twin" sister...the entire thing just didn't ring true.And the stereotypes Scottoline used are so tired and overdone.I've worked for lawyers and am pretty sure that no judge worth his robes would deny a continuance after an attorney's parent died, so that part didn't work for me either.I think Scottoline ought to go back to what works for her rather than trying to turn out a book every 6 months or so. Her writing, timing, plot development and characterizations are suffering.
