  When the 7-year-old soon-to-be nephew of TV show producer Laurie Moran goes missing the families and police (including Laurie's) father manage to come up with several reasons the little boy could have been kidnapped, and several suspects who could have done the deed. While pursuing one of the leads related to Laurie's father they uncover more than they ever expected, which may help clear the father's name in a case in which a convict has accused him of lying about a confession. The story includes many twists and turns, even after the kidnapper's identity is revealed. It's been a long time since I read a book that I just couldn't put down, and it sure felt good.

I thought I had figured out fairly early on who killed 18-year-old Kerry Dowling, but there was just enough misdirection and redirection to keep me guessing. The part of the storyline involving Kerry's mentally challenged neighbor was interesting, especially the scenes with his mother -- but I don't want to give away too much. I'm amazed that age 90 MHC still wants to write, and thankful that she can. View all my reviews My apologies to the lovely Mrs. Clark for not posting this sooner.
