What could be worse for a fifteen year old girl than missing the biggest party of the year?

If you’d asked Shelby Parker that a few days ago she’dhave said absolutely nothing but when a walk in the park with her brother, Josh, ends in him being kidnapped Shelby quickly reassesses.

Now, because of the things she said when her parents cancelled her party plans st the last minute, she’s being accused of getting rid of Josh.

Will Shelby be able to prove her innocence and find Josh before he’s lost to them forever?

Hott Review:

At first I thought reading Beyond Suspicion was going to be difficult. The first chapter is very much like being fifteen again. But as we got into the mystery there was less high school drama and an amazing story emerged.

I took Beyond Suspicion with me to read on a long car trip but found it really hard to put down when we arrived! Even when I wasn’t actively reading, I was thinking about the plot and boy I couldn’t let my kids out of my sight!

Beyond Suspicion is a real pageturner made extra special because it’s suitable for all audiences! There’s no foul language, no uncomfortable scenes, and no gore. It’s a great suspense for everyone!

Excerpt:

“Just a bunch of idiots,” Shelby agreed. Now she’d never get Josh calmed down. But amazingly he wasn’t crying anymore. The jogger continued on up the hill toward the parking lot while she went back to Josh.
Shelby leaned over the stroller. It was empty. Even Brownie Bear and his blanket were gone. She stood up and frantically, heart racing, scanned the park. No one had a baby. She swept her gaze up and down the park again, then over to the parking lot. A white van was pulling out into the street. Her wide eyes watched it drive slowly past the baseball team and the soccer players before disappearing behind a row of live oaks. As Shelby screamed for help it registered in her terrified mind that she might never see Josh again.
