Slopping writing or editing?

Am I the only one who was bothered by an inconsistency in Lisa Unger's book, Fragile? On page 234, "Maggie watched Henry exit his front door and lock it behind him. She wondered how many times she's watched him do that over the years of their friendship." Then just 50 pages later on page 286, "Henry Ivy rarely lock his doors." Whether this was a case of slopping writing or editing, it spoiled the whole book for me. I'm not likely to read anything else by this author.

That's one that should have been pointed out for sure. I think the editor dropped the ball but I don't think it would stop me from reading her work.
If you read my first book you would probably feel the same way about reading my stuff, In fact that just prompted one of my friends who did read to admit that it was a good story and offered to edit my work from that point on.
