“Wright’s style is lyrical and lucid. Her characters are rich psychological portraits.” -The Montreal Gazette
“From first page to final sentence, Strangers Among Us holds the reader to the story.” -The Globe and Mail
From the doyenne of detective novels and the inspiration for the major TV series Murder in a Small Town (starring Rossif Sutherland and Kristin Kreuk), the seventh Karl Alberg detective story—is he the detective or the suspect?
Sullen and withdrawn, homesick and angry, fourteen-year-old Eliot Gardener has been headed for trouble ever since his family moved from Nova Scotia to the quiet coastal Sunshine Coast of British Columbia. But not like this. He’s also, apparently, a double-murderer, having whacked both of his parents with a machete. Only, he can't remember why!
Some say Eliot is a bad seed. Staff Sergeant Karl Alberg doesn't buy that. But the case weights heavily on him, for he knew the Gardeners and he should have seen something coming. And now, poisoning the joy of his and Cassandra Mitchell's wedding plans, a piece of his own past—the survivor of another shattered family—is stalking him. Someone else he's failed. Someone who wants revenge.
And until he can lay to rest the madness of that past, Alberg cannot hope to enter the silent mind of Eliot, where a time bomb is ticking away.
