A Candidate for Murder

Another Joan Lowery Nixon book, they only seem to advance. Hate reading? Nixon makes sure you learn to love it! She's entertaining and at the same time thrilling. I've read two of her other books such as The Kidnapping of Christina Lattimore and Secret, Silent Screams and found them both spectacular! A Candidate for Murder was very fast pace, never dragging. Every time I picked the book up it was like a thriller roller coaster ride that I couldn't get off till I make it to the end. Nixon makes it so that you almost feel like your one of the characters, which leaves your heart racing. I really enjoyed reading this book. No wonder she's a Four-Time Edgar Award Winner who is always at her best!

It began in Texas, on a hot summer day where a sixteen-year-old girl named Cary was excited to help her father run for governor. Cary's father made an announcement at city hall saying he'll be running for governer of Texas, Cary realized that she'd be the center of attention. But when she notice that she was being followed by an unknown person and receiving phone calls in the middle of the night she began to realize these things do not fit with being the governers daughter. After the incident happened she had realized something was wrong, she had her friends help look for suspects, she has the suspects narrowed down to a few people. Cary had also remembers hearing a plane to kill someone, she thought it was a joke; soon she is almost certain who the stalker is. Cary doesn't know what to do; she does not want to tell her father because he'll be worry and just might drop out of being governor.
