"Theresa Galloway knows a call at three a.m. means trouble, especially when it's from her septuagenarian mother. Mrs. Barkley, always keenly watching her deteriorating Sacramento neighborhood, phoned to report that something nasty was sure going on with an old friend next door. And she was right. Within hours the neighbor would be brutally murdered, and a little boy would be missing. Theresa hates to admit it, but Mama usually does know best...until she insists Theresa has a better chance than the police to track down the killer and find the child.

Theresa Galloway, size sixteen and married mother of two, is a buppie--a black urban professional--not a real sleuth. But walking around the 'hood, she is soon trading in her classic pumps for gumshoes, discovering a talent for getting to the roots of trouble in the African-American community. And right now she's following a deadly killer into that shadow land between black and white, where the point of intersection is red. Blood red..."

I found this mystery to be average. Couldn't really identify with the main character and only half-heartedly finished the book. Didn't really hold my interest.

Ready for trade.
