The Search for Karen July 22, 2008
Mark Baker (Santa Clarita, CA United States)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Meg is in blacksmith mode that Monday morning, wanting to build up inventory for an upcoming show. All that stops when her friend Karen stops by. Meg hasn't seen Karen for a couple years, so she is a bit surprised when Karen asks her to watch her toddler, Timmy, for a couple hours. As much as she wants to, Meg can't ignore Karen's obvious desperation, so she says yes.
When Karen hasn't reappeared by that evening, Meg is beyond panicked. And watching a Timmy hasn't helped her nerves. So Meg begins to hunt for the missing Karen. She's just begun when she finds the police searching Karen's apartment. Suddenly, it's looking like Karen might be on the run. Is she a criminal? Why did she leave Timmy with Meg? And can Meg find her and the truth?
This is another rollicking mystery. The emphasis is a little more on the mystery here, but I appreciated that. It started strong and held my interest until the end, which was a surprise to me. Members of Meg's family do appear, but they take a back seat in this book. Frankly, their usual antics were getting a little too predictable, so I appreciated the focus of the humor being on Timmy. I found him cute and funny and laughed quite a few times. Now that isn't to say that Meg's family doesn't get into the act. They provide a few laughs along the way as well.
I thought this entry was stronger than the last couple. I enjoyed every page. It should entertain Meg's many fans.
