Double Identity is about 12 year old Bethany Cole, who is stuck in the car for hours. Her dad is just driving, and her mother is constantly crying (Bethany does not know why). So when her father arrives at Sanderfield, Illinois from Greenleaf Penslyvania to Bethany’s Aunt Myrlie (which never knew that she existed) She hears her father say, “Don’t tell her about Elizabeth”, Bethany is puzzled. This book is wonderful and I think that it will appeal to boys and girls. It is by the author who wrote the Shadow Children Series.

The book is very suspensful while being interesting. Bethany’s parents cloned her to look like her sister that had died. Her parents are over protective because they don’t want history to repeat itself. Everyone talks about her looking just like Elizabeth and Bethany can’t figure out away to find out who she is.
