There is a brilliant switch up of narration somewhere in the middle of the book. That is the crucial part of the storyline. It had me on the edge of the seat. She is not only convinced that her sister murdered him, but also believes that she has not yet left the house. Don’t ever make the mistake of thinking that you have found me. If you do, you’ll be next on my list. Leonard Howell's biggest fear has become his reality, following the abduction of his lovely daughter Caroline.The truth has no place in a courtroom. The only thing that matters is what the prosecution can prove.” Eddie Flynn knows what it's like to lose a daughter and vows to bring Caroline home safe. Once a con artist, now a hotshot criminal attorney, Flynn is no stranger to the shady New York underworld. But one of these women is lying. One of them is a murderer.

The sisters born a year apart but really are quite different. One successful, a golden girl in looks and endeavours. The other pale and troubled. Alexandra and Sofia’s reputation preceded them. But is all as it seems? The evidence increasingly seems as it could go either way in supporting or damning each of the sisters.

This book is more than just a crime thriller. It shows how Kate Brooks stood up to her harassing boss and turned the tables. Alexandra Avellino has just found her father's mutilated body, and needs the police right away. She believes her sister killed him, and that she is still in the house with a knife. I liked this book but not many of the characters, as the ones who were the most unpleasant took up a lot of space.Forced by circumstances to get involved in the trial, Eddie must win an unthinkable murder case in forty-eight hours. Sofia Avellino is prompted to call the police after discovering the horribly disfigured remains of her father in the house. From the start, we begin suspecting both the sisters. The narration switch between each chapter is brilliant and it carries the entire story effortlessly. Nonetheless, he still went on to practice civil rights law and even became part of a number of high profile cases.
