Eyes of a Stranger (Laurel-Leaf Books)

Plot

Shy Marissa has always enjoyed running the carousel--especially now that a handsome, blue-eyed stranger has started coming to ride. Marissa longs to take the place of the young man's beautiful, blond girlfriends. She can't help foolishly hoping to attract the stranger's attention, and she begins to wait anxiously for further visits. But uncertainty tugs at Marissa alongside her excitement. Could it be that her stranger is somehow connected to the recent murders she's heard about in the news? The photos of the blond victims have a vague familiarity. Then Marissa's stranger returns to the carousel, and this time he's alone.
