What people are saying about "Summons From A Stranger"...

I enjoy reading, but many times I find I can predict the ending. Not so with this story. It was a mystery, but the point of view taken to tell the story was refreshing. I have been looking for more books by this author ever since.

I found this book entertaining and fun. An easy read. Reminded me of coming home after school and watching the early movie, which usually consisted of clean, funny 1940's murder mysteries.

I thoroughly enjoyed this murder mystery. I loved the setting, an old mansion in the woods with several overnight guests, all suspects and an inquisitive 12 year old girl trying to put all the pieces together. Excellent book for young readers and adults.

A mystery in a classic Agatha Christie style setting.

A large manor house, a butler… and the vulgar rich. All bundled together in a claustrophobic house with a dying, bitter patriarch. The writing is good...if anything I would compare Diaz's style to some of the Sidney Sheldon novels I have read. Much of this narrative does a great job in making you feel as though you were some silent observer standing in the shadows...The plot is well crafted; it takes a while to boil up but once the "scream" starts off the adventure the pace is dramatic.

Lots of red herrings and false clues make it difficult to piece together the best suspect. Always a sign of a well thought out structure. Again I take my hat off to mystery writers - it's a challenging genre.
