Amazon.com Review
In the old days, Sharon McCone was a scrappy, idealistic investigator
working out of a rambling old San Francisco Victorian that housed the
All Souls legal collective. In the 1990s, All Souls is a conventionally
successful law firm, and McCone is on her own. These days her profile
is a lot higher, thanks to a People magazine article, and her digs,
both personal and professional, are decidedly more upscale. But the
price of fame is higher than she knows; somewhere there's a woman with
Sharon's face, Sharon's name, and a supply of Sharon's business cards.
The impersonator isn't just drumming up business on her own--she's sleeping
with McCone's clients and then stealing from them, destroying the agency's
reputation, and threatening Sharon's family and friends as well as her
livelihood. The mystery woman may even have found a way to screw up
Sharon's relationship with Hy Ripinsky, her long-time lover. What's
certain is that she knows the most intimate details of McCone's private
as well as public life, and that wherever Sharon goes, her impersonator
has somehow managed to get there first. What seemed at first like an
innocent case of heroine-worship turns decidedly deadly, especially
since McCone has no clue as to the mystery woman's motives, plans, or
identity.

Marcia Muller almost single-handedly invented the genre of female P.I.'s,
and she's in top form here, capitalizing on McCone's vulnerabilities
as well as her strengths in a tightly plotted mystery with a dramatic
climax, strong characters, and solid characterization. In prior installments,
both Muller and McCone had started to lose their edge a bit, but fans
of longstanding will be delighted by this engrossing adventure. --Jane

From Publishers Weekly
That's when Sharon McCone, ace San Francisco PI, grapples with nightmares
in this gripping 19th outing in 20 years (following Both Ends of the
Night, 1997). Someone is impersonating Sharon, wearing her name-tag
at parties, sleeping with unsuitable men, committing crimes of which
the detective can be accused, erasing her phone messages, using her
credit cards, even breaking into her apartment, mistreating her cat
and opening a bottle of her favorite wine. The imitator seems to want
to become the PI, but why? McCone's mood isn't helped when one of her
assistants, Ted Smalley, starts acting weirdly, and her lover, Hy Ripinsky,
seems to be pinned down in a mysterious kidnapping in Latin America
and is out of touch for far too long. McCone has to work hard to stay
afloat under fearful pressure, and only the loyal teamwork of her crew
and her determination to run her nemesis to earth brings a hard-won
release. Her new flying skills are put to good use in a nail-biting
climax as her doppelg?nger steals her and Ripinsky's cherished Citabria
plane . As always, Muller's straightforward, no-nonsense writing and
fully dimensioned characterizations lend credibility and color to her
deftly plotted tale.
