Publisher's Summary:

When ex-con J. D. Smith lays out his kidnapping plan that comes complete with a one-million dollar payday to his ex-cellmate, he describes it as "a piece of cake". The "piece of cake", however, goes sour at the very beginning when they inadvertently grab the wrong girl, the daughter of a single-parent school teacher. "Let's just turn the girl loose, J. D.," pleads Rufus Elliot. "Her mother's a school teacher; we'll be lucky to get a five-year old Volvo for all our troubles!" But J. D. is determined to walk away with a cool million bucks in his jeans, and thinks he's hit on another plan that's a cinch to bring it about. What neither one of them has reckoned with is the girl's mother, who packs an S&W .357 in her purse wherever she goes. She's every bit as determined as J. D., and picks up her heavy purse and heads toward a confrontation 18 hours and 300 miles from home to get her daughter back.

If You're Going to Kidnap the Wrong Victim, Don't Grab One With Superpowers

The Wrong Girl is your typical abduction tale in relation to the crime, but not so with the characters. The two kidnappers are pretty cartoon like in their makeup, in fact one of them reminds me of cartoons, where there's a big dumb side kick that usually utters duuuuuhhh, I don't know boss, what will I do when repeating the insult the sidekick just didn't get. The young female victim is not only a child prodigy in IQ, but wouldn't have been out of place on the TV show Heroes. She can enter the mind of anyone, make them good at math or whatever subject they are studying amongst other things, while making witty commentary throughout the book. She can also communicate through her mind with her mother, which is how the mother knows she was kidnapped in the first place. I didn't find the mother acted like a mother would if her daughter was kidnapped, even with her superpowers. I can't see someone reading their daughter's diary and having a good time discovering what her daughter got up to at school, while not seemingly being affected by not knowing if her daughter will make it out of her dilemma alive. The intended target's father (as the title implies they kidnap the wrong girl) is also a little too nice to be believable as well.

But still this is a work of fiction, and it is an entraining read. That's the most important element you want with a fiction novel.

light, easy reading

Good book, good storyline, but too predictable. I usually read a few chapters at a time and it seemed like the chapters in this book were very long. Very few typos, which can be distracting. However, for some reason I could not go back to re-read previous pages in this e-book. I did not like that at all as sometimes I will come upon something and think I may have missed an important detail, or if it had been a few days since I left off and want a quick refresher. This book is more suitable for younger readers - teens or early 20's.

The wrong girl

Great book.absolutely loved it.couldn't. Put it down rarely happens! Robert McCue did himself PROUD.Cannot wait for future books from him

Enjoyable

I enjoyed this book and found it quite entertaining. It's a bit different than most other mystery type novels in that the perpetrators are rather bumbling and not the brightest bulbs in the bunch.
