Separated at birth, thirty-three year old identical twins Ann Livingston and Veronica Westbrook couldn’t be more different: Ann, a loving wife and mother battling depression over the stillborn death of a daughter and infertility from a hysterectomy; Veronica, a heartless sociopath who would commit any crime—and any sin—to make her next big score. When Veronica learns that Ann has married into a wealthy family, she hatches a plan to become Ann. Identical Misfortune chronicles the thoughts and actions of Veronica, a cold-blooded killer as she schemes, lies and murders her way in and out of families on both sides of the Atlantic. The story also follows her pursuer, homicide detective Jo Crowder, whose investigation uncovers one shocking revelation after another. But can she stop Veronica without turning her back on the law she’s sworn to uphold?

A serial killer chooses Easter week to leave dead pregnant teens in front of Catholic churches in New Orleans. Homicide detective Jo Crowder doggedly pursues a trail  of evidence that leads to the arrest of Miguel Diaz, a twenty-year-old Latino nursing student. However, Crowder’s instincts tell her that the evidence against Diaz was planted by the actual murderer. Though directed by her superiors to close the investigation, Crowder keeps digging. She suspects Monsignor Rossi, whose connections to the victims are too suspicious to overlook. But can she prove that the clergyman is a cold-blooded murderer in time to save Diaz?
