This book is a departure from Catherine Palmer's Victorian style, and it is fantastic!! The storyline deals with a reporter assigned to do a story, and how she ends up solving a mystery, saving a little girl, and falling in love. The author shows how sometimes a child knows who is trustworthy better than adults do, and the pitfalls of making assumptions without having all the facts. She also shows how trust, once lost, is not easy to regain, even between good friends. Even with all the struggles the characters face, good does triumph and the guy gets the girl. This is one of Cathy's best books!

All the reviewers who rated this book before me and gave it 1 star are actually reviewing the book "THE AFFECTIONATE ADVERSARY", which I found to be pretty boring. In fact all but three of the other reviewers were rating that book. "Thread of Deceit" has a contemporary setting and deals with child abuse. The other book is set in the victorian era.

this book is about a reporter who goes to a community center to report about lead paint. she comes across an abused girl, a boy who lives in the projects, and the director of the center. she becomes friends with them and writes about the lead paint and the members of the coomunity center. the book is contemporay. i have no idea what book the other people are reviewing. i enjoyed the story and it is worth reading.
