The Tiger in the House by Jacqueline Sheehan

 width=The Tiger in the House (Kensington Publishing) by Jacqueline Sheehan introduces Delia Lamont, who is wrapping up the last month of work at Portland, Maine’s child services agency. She’s ready to open a seaside bakery with her younger sister and start a quieter life. But first, she has one last case to deal with – a five-year-old girl was found wandering along the side of the road, partially dressed and covered in blood. Every clue leading to her family takes Delia deeper into a shadowy web of danger that includes murder, heroin trafficking, and kidnapping.

Jacqueline Sheehan has crafted a story that mixes family drama with a healthy dose of suspense and takes the reader on an emotional journey they won’t soon forget. Sheehan doesn’t shy away from gritty issues and does so with such graceful prose that the reader is caught up in a whirlwind of emotions.

Sheehan’s characters are brilliantly three-dimensional, and her descriptions take you directly to the source. This was a book I desperately wanted to finish to find out the end, but also dreaded the end at the same time because I didn’t want to part with the characters. And, as a firm believer in the healing power of animals, Sheehan’s canine and feline characters stole my heart.

The Tiger in the House is available for purchase.
