This was an unforgettable book. I was hooked from the first page. It had more surprises and twist and turns in it than any book I can ever remember reading. This young girl went through things that no one should have to go through.I really wasn't too surprised about who was more or less the cause of their problems, or the reason why, but some things really surprised me. Nothing was, as it seemed to be. It was a mystery through and through.
I liked how it ended, but, then again, I didn't. I thought another chapter could have been added to finish it completely. See what you think
when you read it. It is a book well worth buying.

I've become a huge fan of Rachel Abbot's after reading several of her other books and this one definitely didn't disappoint. I really love Tom's character and how you're coming to know him more as well as new characters that are introduced in each book. Stranger Child was a highly emotional read for me because it's so easy to put yourself in the character's place due to Ms. Abbot's excellent writing. I think I read it in 2 nights because I didn't want to put it down. Excellent mystery!

so that I read at every opportunity I could. Rachel Abbott has just become my new favorite author. This story had me thinking I had it figured out and then it took another turn. I love it when I don't have it figured out. If your looking for a "who done it" from today mixed in with today's terrors that every parents nightmares are made of and then some read Stranger Child by Rachel Abbott you won't be disappointed.

Keeps your interest. A little drawn out at times with family feelings between the husband, wife, son and the stranger child. It's my second mystery from Rachel Abbott and enjoyed it as much as the first one I read. Would read another one.

I have read the previous books written by Ms Abbott and have enjoyed them. The story lines were sometimes predictable but contained enough twists to keep my interest. Unfortunately, this book reads like a story that was phoned in. Every thing is predictable, and, almost reads like the novel was "jobbed out " to a substitute writer.

This story deals with kidnapped, abused children and runaways. It is a good read and opens the readers eyes as to the difficulties faced in the real world when children don't have a safe place to live. It leaves you wanting to know more about the characters and, as a result, the author has written a novelette that brings some closure for the majority of the main characters. I recommend both books.

This book could have been so much more than 'okay', but it failed. In everything, really. It started off well, then it was like the author just mailed it in. Like she didn't care how the story played out. Overall I was disappointed with this story but it occupied me on a long train journey, hence the average rating.
