The Crack from the Teacup, is usually a mystery fiction novel with a slight seasoning of swoon and suspense to piquancy things up. The storyline line is centered in a very small Californian town wherever an 11-year-old boy, Jerry Beakey, runs missing on his approach to a music lesson. Skillfully taking walks the reader through every part of the case and what goes on in police departments, support centers and inside the family of the lacking person.
You will find two main characters in the Crack in the Teacup. Private investigator Steve Music and his co-workers butt-heads with all the FBI while working for the case. Splendid, in addition to sympathetic, Shelly Lambert guards a really secret and harbors a new guilt that drives her to volunteer along at the Missing and Exploited Children Coalition whenever she could get off her job as some sort of Notary.
Every time Detective Music and Shelly meet through investigation, a thing deeper between them takes place. Neither analysts seems to know how to proceed about it. Steve finds Shelly's secret when your dog looks into her past and creates a large rift between them which may destroy their romance.
A classic who-dun-it written in the Agatha Christi style using a very unusual motive intended for child kidnapping. I suspected nearly everyone involved sometime in the book and I liked which the characters represented true contemporary society, together with people of different races, attitudes and backgrounds. The Crack from the Teacup has very little violence, but a great deal of mystery and a satisfied ending.
