A STRANGER ON THE BEACH by Michele Campbell is full of a lot of suspense. The way everything comes together is not at all what I was expecting. I was hooked on this book from the minute I started it until the ending. Campbell sure knows how to get a person’s attention from the get-go.

So if you are looking for a great mystery, you will love this book. Don’t plan on doing anything for the rest of the day - you won't put it down.
