Now reading The Girl from Silent Lake by Leslie Wolfe. Ooh thought it was going to be too graphic for me, but daily news is too graphic too. Very good, characters, writing, mystery, all. First book in Detective Kay Sharp series. "When single mother Alison Nolan sets off with her six-year-old daughter, Hazel, she can’t wait to spend precious time with her girl. A vacation in Silent Lake, where snow-topped mountains are surrounded by the colors of fall, is just what they need. But hours later, Alison and Hazel vanish into thin air. Detective Kay Sharp rushes to the scene. The only evidence that they were ever there is an abandoned rental car with a suitcase in the back, gummy bears in the open glove compartment and a teddy bear on the floor."
