Bennie Rosato's all-female Philadelphia law firm has seen better days so it's no surprise when Bennie jumps at the chance to represent Robert St. Amien, a debonair European businessman whose U.S. interests are being stolen by a naive trade association's collusive practices. Though Bennie sees dollar signs, there is a group of similarly situated foreign businesses also seeking damages, which brings the case to class-action status, something about which neither Bennie nor her associates possess much expertise. Bennie is game to learn as she goes, but her learning curve is slowed by other distractions, mainly the reappearance of her estranged identical twin sister (from Mistaken Identity, 1999), who is impersonating Bennie and causing no end of trouble. This episode is a bit short on thrills, but it's nice to have Bennie back in the spotlight in a series whose focus jumps among the four partners.
Well this book made a nice dent in my wall as I threw it across the room. Come on, give the plot away in the first 50 pages. Guess I won't be picking up anymore Scottoline books.
Hopefully this book will be going on a Paperbookswap journey soon. If not, it will be wild released. I'm marking it available until someone wants it.

Planning on dropping this off at the Armed Forces service center at the airport.
