[quote=Anonymous]I can really only comment on The Likeness. I agree that it's implausible, but the fact is the murderer could have left his victim very close to death yet they were found and survived anyway.

For me, the idea that someone looks EXACTLY like another person is also deeply flawed. We all know people who look a bit like each other, we've seen celebrities who get confused for each other (Javier Bardem / Jeffrey Dean Morgan, etc) but the level of mistaking one person for another in this story is way beyond reality.

I did enjoy the TV version of this which was combined with another of the books, In the Woods, to make one single series, but I found when I tried to read the books, they were almost unreadable. Well done for getting through so many of them. I think what you pick up on, is that her stories are mainly plot led, rather than character led which is why her characters do things you don't always find believable. They are there only to serve the story, which undermines any character development. [/quote]
