The Third Twin Book Report “The Third Twin” is about a criminality researcher, Jeannie Ferrami, as she prove a man’s innocence of a rape crime and also unlock a mystery that nearly gets her killed. The setting takes place in Baltimore around the turn of the twenty first century. It starts around autumn and seems relaxing until the rape occurs.

The fire, rape, fights were described in a manner that allowed me to truly experience and understand what it was like in the character’s shoes. The plot went through many situations from jail cells all the way to getting confidential information from the Pentagon.
