Lottie's Adventure: A Kidnapping Unraveled, is a new, action-packed children's book written especially for ages 8 through 14.

Lottie, a lively ten-year old Hispanic girl, longs for something new and different in her life. Her summers up to this point have all been, more or less, the same. Then the arrival of a magical letter and a TV newscast transforms her vacation time in a high adventure. An adventure which involves trying to relate to a cold, estranged, yet very rich grandmother, freeing a kidnapped ten-year-old African American boy from a locked room, hiding him in a safe place, and then fleeing with him from a kidnapper who is always just a step or two behind.
