Kidnap
Kidnap introduces Edwina Henderson as the professional and literary successor to retired fictional RCMP officer Karl Alberg in L. R. Wright's multi-award-winning mystery series set on British Columbia's Sunshine Coast. As its title suggests, Kidnap centres on abduction. Who did it is never in question--five-year-old Samantha was snatched by the lonely 60-year-old neighbour of a resentful cousin. Instead, the story probes just why Susie Wilson stole the child. Having racked up numerous prizes, including the first Edgar Award given by the Mystery Writers of America to a Canadian novel (for her debut, The Suspect) and two Arthur Ellis Awards (for A Chill Rain in January and Mother Love), Wright ranks with P. D. James and Ruth Rendell as a master of the psychological thriller. In Kidnap, tensions mount as Eddie Henderson grapples with the demands of adjusting to a new job in an unfamiliar community while trying desperately to escape some ghosts in her past. Wright brings her trademark tricks to the new series, keeping readers enthralled by the possibility that violence may suddenly erupt, perhaps even in connection to the puzzling kidnapping. --Deirdre Hanna Author(s): L.
