A Seahorse in the Thames — Susan Meissner

In this new novel by critically acclaimed author Susan Meissner, readers will again applaud the storytelling efforts that last year resulted in the author's previous book, A Window to the World, being named by Booklist Magazine as one of the top ten Christian novels of 2005.

Alexa Poole's older sister, Rebecca, has lived at the Falkman Residential Center since an accident left her mentally compromised -- vulnerable, innocent. Now, 17 years later, she has vanished.

As Alexa searches for Rebecca, disturbing questions surface. Why did the car that Rebecca was riding in swerve off the road killing her college friend, Leanne McNeil? And what about the mysterious check for $50,000 found in Rebecca's room signed by her friend's father, Gavin McNeil?
