Rating: Summary: Fabulous, Fast Paced Ride!! Review: This was my first Lisa Gardner book and I'm off to find the others. It was a terrific, fast paced read. The story surrounds an Oregon private investigator, Rainie, and an FBI profiler, Quincy, who have met on a previous case. Quincy's daughter has a fatal car accident and he employs Rainie to investigate the circumstances. Soon it becomes obvious that someone incredibly clever is stalking his family members. The hunt is on to discover his identity and catch him before he kills again. I don't want to give anything away so I will simply conclude by saying that the story was so cleverly woven in parts that I could swear I heard Lisa Gardner say "Gotcha" to me.

Rating: Summary: It'll keep you up at night Review: When FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy's daughter suffers a one-car, drunk-driving accident and remains in a coma, it at first seems an unfortunate tragedy. But when she dies months later, her death becomes only the first in many horrible losses for Pierce. His ex-wife is viciously butchered. His father is kidnapped from his nursing home.
Worst of all, Pierce himself has been framed for his ex-wife's murder. It takes the combined efforts of Pierce, his private-eye sort-of girlfriend Rainie Conner and his criminology-student daughter to defeat a villain who preys on his victim's minds just before he kills them. He's a villain so cruel he will stop at nothing until he reaches his ultimate goal--Pierce's utter ruin. He plans to take away from Pierce everything Pierce loves--just as the agent did to him.
Lisa Gardner is in top form with this delicious thriller and the multi-faceted romance between Pierce and Rainie. It's a book that keeps you up at night--even if you're a little bit afraid to read it after dark.
Rating: Summary: Wow! Review: Yes Raine could be somewhat annoying due to her avoidance of real feelings. However, given the circumstances of her childhood it was very understandable. And yes, Quincy could be a bit too controlled. But, again that was the only way he could do his job and remain sane. I read a lot but don't often find a book I can't put down. This defintely fell within that category! And it kept me guessing which is something that also doesn't happen often. I would defintely recommend this book!!
