From Library Journal:
California police accuse itinerant artist Shannon Buchanan of kidnapping young Mandy (a cute tyke who calls her mother Shannon), and before she knows it, they plop Shannon in jail and "reunite" Mandy with her anxious "real" parents. One good-hearted cop, though, who believes Shannon's story that Mandy is her daughter, starts investigating on his own, uncovers the truth, unmasks a murderer, saves the day, etc., etc. An overly simplified plot, then, and not without moments of hokum, but a harmlessly pleasant first novel.

From Publishers Weekly:
After he charges vagabond artist Shannon Buchanan with kidnapping and returns Shannon's "daughter" to the allegedly rightful parents, Inspector Phil Tewkes has second thoughts about the child's identity. "The twisting plot and seesaw incidents generate a suspense resolved in a rather facile fashion, given the terrible reality of lost or threatened children," said PW.
