The Likeness by Tana French Optioned for Film

Tana French's second Cassie Maddox mystery, The Likeness, has been optioned for film. Stephanie Savage will write the adapted screenplay.

Six months after the events of In the Woods — the first book in the series, which has also been optioned for film — an urgent telephone call beckons Cassie to a grisly crime scene. The victim looks exactly like Cassie and carries ID identifying herself as Alexandra Madison, an alias Cassie once used. Suddenly, Cassie must discover not only who killed this girl, but more importantly, who is this girl?
