In this book, we find out that Will Tucker has a twin brother, another William Tucker. Since they have the same first names, they separate themselves by using their middle names. John is the criminal, and Jefferson is the law-abiding twin who comes to visit his brother in prison, only to end up taking his place for close to a year.
Sadie is instrumental in releasing Jefferson but is encouraged to stay on the case. They still need to find John after all. Sadie is more interested in moving on to another case, one involving art forgeries instead of basically babysitting Jefferson. But when the two cases overlap, they decide to work together to solve the mystery and hopefully get Jefferson's life back.
As they dive deeper into the mystery, the dangers increase, and things get more complicated. Sadie and Jefferson come to care for each other but are determined to remain professional until the case is complete.
I liked this book, but the ending had a bittersweet element to it. Also, the explanations at the very end seemed rushed and could be a bit confusing if you're not paying close attention. I felt that some of the "catching of the criminals" that happened by brief explanation was somewhat disappointing. Overall, while it wasn't my favorite of the series, it was still a good read. You can read this one alone, but if you want to understand more of Will "John" Tucker's crimes, you'd be better off reading them in order. Good Book!
