Also the Twin by  R. M. Elliott is a FBI cold case with many twists, and has a snarly investigator with a sense of humour  was an entertaining story and drives the reader through many conflicts, with a hint of romance.

The author has written an intriguing plot, fill with thievery, to blackmail to sabotage to murder, and the surprising conclusion was not expected.  This reader definitely recommends this book too for a lazy Sunday, as well as the others he has published.
