This one, the fourth in the set of Sloane Monroe Stories, is way more polished than the first three, which I got as a Kindle boxed set. It has WAY fewer errors. I really enjoyed the story too. It's about a little girl whose mother turns away to look at cards in a shop and she is snatched ! Sloane is hired by a panic-stricken father. A couple of times I did have to suspend belief a bit but won't post spoilers. It didn't spoil my enjoyment. I do like Sloane still but she did seem a little too fickle for me in this instalment. I've not seen a fifth listed yet so I hope the author will stick with her.The author requests any errors spotted are sent to her which I'll do...oh, there WAS a passage I did consider lifted possibly from One For The Money !! It was eerily similar !! Reminiscent of Tess Gerritsen's Rizzoli and Isles characters, Cheryl Bradshaw creates a memorable story of child abductions and a race against time to link a recent crime to a cold case. Why, two years after the first disappearance and six months after the second, do two families receive a coloring book page done in each girl's favorite colors, and containing their fingerprints? Stranger in Town is a fast read with a good plot. Unfortunately, the ending leaves "I don't believe it" echoing through the reader's mind. The characters are quite likable, but easily left behind because they are a bit flat.

I read this while answering doors for trick-or-treaters. xD

Hackneyed and contrived; an ok read nevertheless.

Good book. I wish it had been a little longer.
