A review by sanjeevp
Identical by Scott Turow
3.0
This book is different from Turow's usual legal thrillers of Presumed Innocent genre. The story in this book revolves around Greek families, politics and a little bit of legal and correctional system.
It starts out with a set of identical twins, one of whom has already plead guilty but other twin is accused and suspected of having committed the murder. So the first part is about twin forensics - how different is their DNA, blood, fingerprints etc.
And then Turow adds his twists and turns that make the book interesting so that the end is totally different and unpredictable.
The book is good but not a hard to put down legal thrillers that we expect from Scott Turow. Turow has ventured outside his usual genre but his mastery of legal thrill does not come through in this book.
