The Visitor Series continues with a heartwarming suspense story that … well, here’s my recent review:

The moment I opened this book, I knew I was in trouble. It reminded me of a favorite short story by O. Henry–The Ransom of Red Chief, with a little “Home Alone” tossed in for good measure. I raised three sons, so maybe that’s the reason I enjoyed the story so much. Dena Netherton has a way with gripping suspense and quirky, mean characters. As a reader, you don’t like them (the bad guys). Don’t like their looks or what they’re doing, but can’t stop reading until justice is served. Netherton tied this one up in an oh, so satisfying way.

Yep. Loved it. Deliciously hateful bad guys dealt with in a satisfying manner. Altogether pleasant summertime read.

How do baby goats, ugly graffiti, and a would-be hero add up to a kidnapping? Connie B. Wright intends to find out.

Skye Wright has been running Our Kids for several years and is delighted that her Aund Connie comes to attend the fundraiser that Skye and her volunteers have planned. This will create crucial funding to carry the children’s home for another year, not to mention some much-needed repairs.

The repair list grows when an unknown vandal paints mean comments along one wall. But the minor annoyance turns to deep concern as vandalism becomes accompanied by actual threats.

Why would someone target a children’s shelter?

Match wits with The Visitor as she works to uncover the person behind a series of dangerous crimes.
