Much better than the first book in the series. Esther grows as a character as do others in the story. Someone is duplicating wiseguys to start a turf war. Esther becomes an eye witness to the first murder and the first doppleganger. THe story flows well and builds good tension even though I figured out who the evildoer was before it was revealed. 3.5 stars
