A.L. McKittridge is just back from vacation when his partner, Rena
Morgan, calls to tell him they have a missing five-year-old. Her
grandmother dropped her off at the daycare center, but neither the
teacher in her classroom nor the director, who was filling in that
morning, saw the child.
The disappearance of
a child and the possibility of kidnapping have McKittridge and Rena
working flat out to discover what happened, but they keep coming up
empty. The conclusion is that someone must be lying, but who?
This is an excellent
police procedural. The actions by the police are realistic. The main
characters come alive as real people. There is just enough of the off
duty background for McKittridge and Rena to make them real, but not
enough to disrupt the police investigation.
The plot is
fast-moving with plenty of twists. It’s hard to guess the ending,
but satisfying when you get there.
This is the second
book in the A.L. McKittridge series. It’s as good as the first book
and promises that this series will be one of my favorites. If you
like police procedurals, try this one.
I received this book
from Harlequin for this review.
