Elena's Twins Mystery Series begins with the novel TWO-FACED, which introduces Gen Ziegler, forensic psychologist, and her mirror-image twin, Sara. In THE TODD CHRONICLES, Todd MacBride, a geeky psych student, appoints himself as Gen Ziegler's "Dr. Watson" as he puts a hilarious spin on her Tucson cases. The series continues most recently with DOUBLE CROSS, when the sisters become stranded in a West Texas town, surrounded by secrets, outlaws, danger, and murder.

Very enjoyable mystery book, third in a series featuring twins Gen and Sara Ziegler.
Since I've read books 1 and 2 in the series, I am quite interested in the continuing relationship between the twins and especially in the personality of the twin telling the story (Gen).
This is an action-packed story set in West Texas with descriptions that make you feel you are there. There are plenty of characters to care about and wonder about and generally keep you turning the pages.
