The Likeness by Tana French

The Likeness (Dublin Murder Squad #2) by Tana French, 466 p.

"Still traumatised by her brush with a psychopath, Detective Cassie Maddox transfers out of the Murder squad and starts a relationship with fellow detective Sam O’Neill. When he calls her to the scene of his new case, she is shocked to find that the murdered girl is her double. What’s more, her ID shows she is Lexie Madison – the identity Cassie used, years ago, as an undercover detective. With no leads, no suspects and no clues to Lexie’s real identity, Cassie’s old boss spots the opportunity of a lifetime: send Cassie undercover in her place, to tempt the killer out of hiding to finish the job."--Goodreads blurb

The second book in this series was as engrossing as the first. With Cassie as the main character in this book, her flaws and strengths come into play as she tries to navigate this latest case while undercover. She is as likeably unlikeable in this second book as in the first, and I got just as frustrated with her as I did with Rob in the first book. While I enjoyed this book, it introduced the character of the next book whom I disliked so much I won't be continuing on with the series. I enjoyed the first two a lot, though.
