The Lost One / The Frightened Child

Two Mysteries back to back in One Book! THE LOST ONE: Alice Johnson had never had anything of her own--no home, no possessions; and she was unable to bear a child, the one great passion of her existence. And so, unknown to her husband Frank, when her third attempt at childbearing failed, she was driven to taking another woman's child. Dana Lyon has written a tense, harrowing story of the theft of a newborn child, the tragic aftermath, and the grim and relentless pursuit by the forces of the law. THE FRIGHTENED CHILD: A very fine novel of suspense...contains an authentically interesting behind-the-scenes glimpse of courtroom psychology and strategy.
