Shadowmaker
Kate and her Mum are new to town but the mother's reputation for campaigning about the illegal dumping of toxic waste precedes her. Kate finds herself caught up detecting this and a series of robberies and then murder which have been committed in the town. The book opens with the first of a series of attacks on their house at night... Joan Lowery Nixon has been a superior user of suspense from pre-Point Horror time and this title will probably gain her those readers who'll be entertained by a skilful manipulator of story tension.
