Summary
A pulse-pounding novel about a small-town business owner found dead and the teenage girl caught in the crosshairs, American Girl is the latest thriller from international best-selling author Wendy Walker.
Charlie Hudson, an autistic 17-year-old, is determined to leave Sawyer, PA, as soon as she graduates high school - in the meantime, she works as many hours as she can at a sandwich shop called The Triple S to save money for college. But when shop owner Clay Cooper - a man who is both respected and feared by many in this economically depressed community - is found dead, each member of his staff becomes a suspect in the perplexing case. Charlie must work to protect herself and her friends and uncover the danger that may still be at large in their tightknit community.
Best-selling author Wendy Walker returns with another riveting thriller, told through the eyes of an unforgettable protagonist.

Brilliantly Narrated
The Narrator for Charlie is fantastic, I kept going with this book as she really manages to draw you in to the story. An easy listen with a nice little twist.

truly delightful story, with a good twist!
I was genuinely surprised by this book. It's nostalgia in the present, a clever mystery, and truly believable characters. Will be.looking for other stories by this author.

American Girl by Wendy Walker
i did like this story,didn't love it,this was because I struggled to listen to the american accent of the narrator. The story was good tho,had you guessing. The narrator explained in simple turns,in a story like way,how autism made the main character behave,what she had to do,this enhanced the story rather than distract the listener.
i would recommend listeningto it.
