The Color of Fear

The Color of Fear marks Judy Alter's return to mystery fiction and the Kelly O'Connell series after an absence of more than a year. This time, the indomitable Keisha narrates the short tale wherein Kelly and her family live under the threat of infant Gracie's kidnapping. The story serves as a reprise of many of the previous novels in the series, as Keisha, in her search for the kidnapper, recalls Kelly's earlier adventures. Keisha remains outspoken and independent as she balances her need to protect Kelly and her family with her love for new husband, Jose Thornberry. Some but not all of Kelly's friends and foes from previous stories appear here, along with such new characters as Clyde, the guard dog, and Cowboy, the homeless guy with a soft heart.
