I had a very hard time putting this down. It was a very suspense-filled mystery. The twist on kidnapping--the kidnapper moving in with the victim's family was interesting as was the secondary plotline about the kidnapper's wife. Well done!
Amother's worse nightmare is having a child taken, the fear, the unreality of it all comes crashing through in this book
