    • 5/5
      This story begins with a burnt skull with a bullet hole wrapped in a nice package with and including a two-sided mirror being left on Eve Duncan's front porch. Because her fey and precocious six-year-old Michael encourages her to restore the skull so that the victim can find her way home, Eve begins something that will lead to incredible danger.Then the story switches to Cara at school with her new roommate former child star Darcy Nichols. Cara is wishing to visit Eve, Joe and Michael and angsting over her relationship with Jock Gavin who has been out of touch for some months. Cara is also planning her usual month with her Russian mafia grandfather Sergei Kaskov which makes Jock and her family uneasy. When her rooms are broken into in New York, she takes Darcy and goes back to stay with Eve for a while leaving Jock to investigate.Cara's relationship with Jock is changing. She's eighteen now and not the traumatized eleven-year-old that Jock rescued. They've had years of being best friends but now she is starting to feel grown-up feeling around him. Jock is a former assassin who feels that Cara can do better and he's been waiting for years to find some more appropriate for her to love. When they get to Eve's, they are all surprised and upset to find that the skull belongs to Darcy's secret twin sister. She was brain-damaged at birth and Darcy's mother blackmailed Darcy to work in show business to earn the money to provide her sister with the kind of care she needed while forbidding her to visit her. However, they do have a twin mental communication which they could use to get around their mother's rules. Only, the twin Sylvie dropped off Darcy's mental radar a couple of months before and now Darcy knows why. The villain has set up a complex plot to get revenge on Eve, Cara, and Cara's grandfather leaving Darcy as collateral damage. It will be up to Eve, Joe, Jock, and Kaskov with Cara, Michael and Darcy's help to defeat the villain before he can complete his plot. This was well-written. I enjoyed the fast pace of the story and the relationships between the characters. I like that Cara is part of a family formed by love rather than blood relationships. I liked her growing and changing relationship with Jock.

      In this 23rd novel in the Eve Duncan series, we meet new characters and see new and different situations, including some special weapons. Once again the story begins with a skull that Eve reconstructs. Michael, her six year old son, calls it Sylvie. Cara, Eve and Joe's ward is in New York at the Carnegie School boarding with Darcy, a child actress who is now a beautiful woman who is training to be a singer. Jock Gavin, Cara's BFF and soulmate is visiting her when she is attacked in her dorm room. She heads off home to Atlanta and Darcy goes with her. When they arrive home, Darcy recognized the reconstruction, in fact, it looks just like her. It is determined that it is her twin sister, who is supposed to be living in a home for people with developmental issues. The mystery begins. Of course Eve has been targeted as well as Cara by this mysterious psycho who left the skull in Joe's vehicle for Eve to find in the first place. Add in Cara's Russian mob grandfather to the mix and there is a lot of adventure, some murders, kidnapping, mind melding and more. I have enjoyed this series, but I think I might be ready to move on. I hope she continues to write some of her other series that have not gone on as long and are still fresh. The publisher generously provided me with a copy of this book via Netgalley.

      Shattered Mirror is part of the Eve Duncan series, which is an all-time favorite of mine, by Iris Johansen. Sometimes when a series gets to book #23 (or another higher number) the story becomes predictable, boring, or repetitive. Yet, Iris Johansen writes each Eve Duncan book as its own story. Each story has a unique mystery, new interesting characters, and a different setting. While all of that is new and exciting, there are the old favorite characters, relationships, and familiar settings that have always made this series a must-read. Shattered Mirror focus’ on Cara. Her family, her history, her present, and her future are all shared to allow the reader to get to know her better. Of course, Eve, Joe, and their son Michael are all featured characters since they are now the family that Cara never had growing up. Jock, I picture him as a rough around the edges sexy alpha male who always seems to be around, is a huge part of the story since the connection between Cara and Jock has always been part of any story that Cara is part of. I will always be an Eve Duncan fan but it is fun to get the chance to know the secondary characters from her other books. Read this series, start it in any order, but read it. Iris Johansen has a great talent for suspense, thrills, twists, and turns.

      I love Iris Johansen and this book is no exception! I have not read all of the Eve Duncan books but when I was approved for a review copy I knew I had to grab this one and I am glad I did. I will be going back and reading the entire series so that I can understand all of the characters. Eve is a forensic sculptor and when she receives a skull she sculpts it. there is a lot of action and suspense as the identity and what happened to the person is revealed.

      Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for my advanced review copy.

      Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for an advance e-copy of Shattered Mirror by Iris Johansen in exchange for an honest review. This novel is 23rd in the series with Eve Duncan, forensic sculptor. Because this was my first in this series, I felt that I was missing necessary information from the previous books and I had trouble catching up. This is not a standalone novel. The story starts with a suspenseful delivery of an unknown skull to Eve's cottage. Not knowing who left this, she goes ahead and sculpts the face of this unknown woman and the story takes off from there. The rest of the book reveals who this mystery woman was and what happened to her, who sent this mystery skull to Eve and what danger lurks after the identification becomes known. Good mystery with many characters and a fair amount of suspense.

      A mysterious package, left for forensic sculptor Eve Duncan, contains a burned skull and a two-sided mirror. Determined to reconstruct the skull, Eve discovers it is the skull of a young woman. But the truth finally revealed throws Eve and her family into a deadly cat-and-mouse game that could leave all their lives hanging in the balance.In this, the twenty-third Eve Duncan outing, readers will find Michael and Cara in the midst of the mystery. Joining them is Cara’s Carnegie Tech roommate, Darcy Nichols, who proves to have an unexpected part in the mystery of the skull Eve has reconstructed. Unexpected reveals and plot twists will keep readers guessing until the final reveal.Highly recommended.

      Thank you NetGalley and St. martens Press for the ARCSHATTERED MIRROR by Iris Johansen is the number 23 in the Eve Duncan series. I have read all of the Eve Duncan books and could not but the book down. This one is no different.Cara and Darcy are roommates at a famous performing arts school. They both have their inner secrets, but have become as close as sisters. What they don't know is their families are in the cross hairs of the killer?Eve lives in the lake house with her husband Joe and 6 year old son Michael. Being a forensic sculptor, she is not surprised when she finds that someone has left her a gold box with a skull inside. The nightmare for her and her family begins.

      SHATTERED MIRROR by Iris Johansen is the number 23 in the Eve Duncan series. I know I’ve read one or two of these in the past and must have liked them, but I can’t say the same for this outing. While the plot had some holes in it (why Sylvie for one) there was more than enough action to make the story move pretty quickly.On the negative side I almost gagged from all the schmaltz going on between the characters. Does anyone every only have heart to heart conversations with their loved ones? Are all families connected at a inner psychic level? Since when do 6 year olds, even gifted ones, talk like this? Two roommates at a famous performing arts school just happen to be stalked by the same psycho, not because they are roommates or school mates, but because their families are in the cross hairs of the killer?I pushed myself through this thing, forcing myself to read a couple of chapters a day, but it was work, not pleasure. Perhaps for the serious series readers out there this will be a wonderful inclusion to a long series, but I wouldn’t recommend it to the casual reader.And I am getting very tired of psychotic killers who have the psychic ability to plot and plan every twist and turn of the victims lives, set up a game to use the secret workings of the family against them, and then ALMOST succeed in their evil, but not quite.Maybe they’re read the other books in the series for their insight.
