Good book...but

I liked this book and it kept me reading far into the night. Sydney was a mother trying hard not to let the horrors of her past control the way she treated her daughter. Marshall was a bit of a lost soul trying to find his place in life. OK the fact that he was sleeping with three different women (none of them Sydney) was rather high on the ick factor scale.
The problem? My copy was so poorly edited it was actually distracting. Spelling wrong, extra words, wrong words. I kept re-reading to get the point. Actually I think somebody must have slept through the editing for this one!

I thought that The Other Twin by Hunter Morgan was an excellent read. I found the story to be one I could not put down until I finished the last page. I especially liked the FBI agents. They were fresh and interesting. Above all, I could identify with a mother trying to protect her child against a monster. The ending did not disappoint. This book will give you chills, but the plot is fantastic. I cheered at the end.

engaging romantic suspense thriller

Format:Mass Market Paperback
In 1974 Newark, the twin sisters wait in the car for their father to leave the bar to drive them home, but he is to busy getting intoxicated. Charles Eshley snatches one of the girls, eventually raping and killing Marla. Though he is the obvious suspect in other murders of one sibling of twins, no evidence exists to prove it. In the Marla murder, the surviving sister Sydney had seen him and testifies at his trial that he abducted her sibling. Her testimony convicts Charles to a life sentence.
Almost three decades later, Sydney, a divorced mother raising a teen, learns that a twin has been snatched. She also finds out that Charles has been paroled as a model prisoner with a heart ailment. She believes Charles took the child. When a second abduction occurs, she turns to the author of a book on the snatching of Marla and other twins, Marshall King for help. As she and Marshall fall in love, the danger for Sydney and her daughter mounts, but almost no one believes she or her daughter are in danger from an ailing old man.
Like many recent novels the plot focuses on twins as its prime device (to the point of twins baby boom). Though overused, Hunter Morgan keeps his tale fresh and engaging, as Sydney seems alone in her effort to keep her daughter safe. Though the final twist is reminiscent of a Dean Koontz novel (this geezerette cannot recall the title), the audience will enjoy this engaging romantic suspense thriller.
