The Third Twin by Ken Follett


It has been awhile since I have read any of Follett’s books.  Frankly I forgot how he can take you to the edge, chapter after chapter!  As much as “a master of suspense” is bandied about I’m reluctant to use it but HE’s A MASTER OF SUSPENSE! 

The book takes place at a small liberal arts college and involves a feisty new hire teacher, not yet a professor who is studying twins and criminal behavior.   Her works is interrupted when one of her friends is raped during a campus fire.   She deduces that her theories are correct but struggles to find proof.   Steve Logan enters Dr. Jeannie Ferrami’s life and everything changes.

There is struggle, violence, allusions to consensual sex and interpersonal action.   Follett mixes it up and keeps the door open for mystery clear up to the end when he neatly ties all loose ends into a great big glorious bow!

Taking note of the exclamation points it should be clear I really enjoyed the book and highly recommend it.


This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
