I understand the adoptive parents' irrational fear of their baby's biological family, and the uncertainty born of having opened life and heart to the unknown. And I know the lengths and depths they, like any parent, would go to keep their child safe from harm. (Erica Spindler)

More About the Author
A New York Times and International bestselling author, Erica Spindler's skill for crafting engrossing plots and compelling characters has earned both critical praise and legions of fans. Published in 25 countries, her stories have been lauded as "thrill-packed page turners, white- knuckle rides and edge-of-your-seat whodunits."
Raised in Rockford, Illinois, Erica had planned on being an artist, earning a BFA from Delta State University and an MFA from the University of New Orleans in the visual arts. In June of 1982, in bed with a cold, she picked up a romance novel for relief from daytime television. She was immediately hooked, and soon decided to try to write one herself. She leaped from romance to suspense in 1996 with her novel Forbidden Fruit, and found her true calling.
Her novel Bone Cold won the prestigious Daphne du Maurier Award for excellence. A Romance Writers of America Honor Roll member, she received a Kiss of Death Award for her novels Forbidden Fruit and Dead Run and was a three-time RITA® Award finalist. Publishers Weekly awarded the audio version of her novel Shocking Pink a Listen Up Award, naming it one of the best audio mystery books of 1998.
Erica lives just outside New Orleans, Louisiana, with her husband and two sons and is busy at work on her next thriller.

A Suprising Read,
By
This review is from: Cause For Alarm (Mass Market Paperback)
Okay, picked the book up at [local store] for dirt cheap thinking maybe I might read this..possibly sounds interesting. Holy cow, it was beyond interesting! The characters that Erica Spindler create in her story are very complex and each are nothing alike. You quickly flip the pages wanting to find out more about the very screwed up lives of these characters while being able to truly picture what they are doing. Spindler gives thorough details to help the reader picture these characters and better relate to them. The twist and turns, some suprising and others predictable, also help the reader in becoming their own detective in figuring out just what is happening to these people and who might not live to see the end of the book. I would highly recommend and say....be ready to have some sleepless nights since you just can't put the book down!

WoW,
By Christina (Indiana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cause For Alarm (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the first book by Erica Spindler that I have read. It was a very exciting book. While reading it I could acually feel the emotions of the characters. My heart would even begin to race at to parts of suspense. I can honestly say no book has made me react the way this one has. It is an excellent book and I encourage all to read it. Because I couldn't put it down. I read the book in a total of 3 days because it was so well written. Then I had to go and buy another by her. She is an excellent auther. She keeps you guessing and throws some controversial things in with it.

This was not as good as her usual books,
By
This review is from: Cause For Alarm (Mass Market Paperback)
This book was good, but it wasn't as thrilling as the others that she writes. I was disappointed with this one and the ending on this one.The context of the book was good, but the ending wasn't all that great. I recommend all of her other books before this one.
