The Guise of Another

The Guise of Another by Allen Eskens, 267 pages.
Minneapolis Detective Alexander Rupert is under investigation for corruption. He had been in Narcotics, but his partner was arrested for various misdeeds and Alex may be implicated as well. His semi-trophy wife may be leaving him, and he may or may not be on the verge of losing everything he has, including the respect of his older brother Max who is also a cop (and who was a pivotal character in Eskens excellent The Life We Bury).
When Alex gets the chance to investigate an apparent identity theft by a man, now deceased, who had faked his own death 15 years before, he believes he may have found a path to resurrecting his career. The characters, plot twists, and decisions that stand in his way are all well-crafted, and make this an interesting read.
