5.0 out of 5 stars Intelligent/moving mystery akin to the work of P.D. James!, June 20, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Strangers Among Us (Karl Alberg Mysteries, No. 8) (Hardcover)

L.R. Wright moves us with the intelligent portrayal of a life wasted.
Her central characters of Karl Ahlberg and his
fiancee Cassandra are well rounded, likeable, and
all too human.
You will find your heart aches for the boy in this book, and at the same time he will frighten you.
Wright has the gift of eliciting emotion from her readers.
Her supporting characters (Sid & Bernie) flesh out
the story such that you want to read more about them as well. Altogether a great read!

This review is from: Strangers among Us (Mass Market Paperback)

The book was falling apart. Every page I turned came out. Couldn't finish reading it because it was falling apart. Disappointed!

This review is from: Strangers Among Us (Hardcover)

I kept waiting for this book to develop something: a character that seemed real, a situation with depth, a conversation with substance. And to no avail--I finished the book without any of those things happening
