Learning to Swim / Sara J. Henry / 487 pages / First Book in a Series

Troy Chance is a freelance journalist specializing in sporting events.   She lives in Lake Placid and owns a house big enough to take in boarders.  They are all young men.  When Troy is returning home from viewing a play she needs to review, she sees a young boy dropped overboard from a ferry.  Without thought or hesitation, she jumps off her ferry and attempts to save him.  He tells her a wild story involving his kidnapping and his mother's murder.  He had been held captive for six months.  Troy wants to keep Paul, but, of course, knows this is impossible.  She returns him to his father and begins the investigation to find his kidnappers.  This is a gripping, heartrending mystery filled with tantalizing details and intriguing plot twists.
