Publisher Description
Afraid To Scream
Others may dread the chill of winter, but he relishes it. The way the frigid water preserves his victims, the feel of their icy skin beneath his fingers. . . And soon the world will see their beauty--and his vengeance.
Afraid To Run
The town of Grizzly Falls is on edge in the wake of a serial killer, and Detective Selena Alvarez is no exception. That case was solved, but a new nightmare is about to unfold. There are two victims so far--their bodies found frozen solid and deliberately displayed. Both are women she knew. And each wears a piece of Selena's jewelry. . .
Afraid To Die
Selena's partner, Detective Regan Pescoli, and the entire department are on the case, as is P.I. Dylan O'Keefe--a man Selena got too close to once before. But this killer already knows too much about Selena's secret terror, her flaws, and the past she's tried to outrun. And soon he'll show her that she has every reason to be afraid. . .

"It's Christmastime in Grizzly Falls, which means it's time for someone to start killing women in cold and creative ways! This time it's Selena Alvarez in the crosshairs, which is a surprise to some given her quiet and controlled personality and life style. But Jackson has hinted all along that there was more to Selena's story that we were being told, and in this novel we learn it all. There were some surprising twists to this book, a big one being that Alvarez is no longer crushing over Captain Grayson. That's a new development that seems to have happened off-screen, but it's also sort of refreshing, and I found her old/new love, Dylan O'Keefe way more interesting. My only complaint has to do with the series' recurring issues that Jackson continues to leave unresolved, most notably Regan Pescoli's (Alvarez's partner) seeming reluctance to commit to a relationship with Nate Santana. She continues to use her kids as an excuse, but that really doesn't wash anymore. And then there's the fact that Grizzly Falls still has anyone living there, given the rather high murder rate and the horrible winters! One would think people might start moving away (after the roads clear, of course.) LOLI enjoy Jackson's storytelling, and I've grown attached to the citizens of Grizzly Falls. And if Pescoli wants my advice, she'll move in with the patient and ever-so-hunky Nate Santana, who, let's not forget, saved her life a while back!"

" Sorry.... Just couldn't get into it. Part of this book just dragged on and on and on. Other parts I just skimmed over just to get the drift of the story. Usually I like Lisa Jackson, but this one, well, got one star from this reader. "
— Laurie, 2/20/2014 -
" I was looking for a good novel and came across this mystery. Liked the writing, but think the police could have solved this sooner rather than later. I like the author's style. Kept me interested. "
— Lynn, 2/19/2014 -
" I like her books although sometimes the dialogue leaves something to be desired "
— Andy, 2/16/2014 -
" Sstarted a little slow. characters are a little flat. I couldn't put it down at the end. "
— Susan, 1/26/2014 -
" I didn't know it was the fourth in a series. I haven't read the others but after reading this one I feel that I need to go back and read more. I loved the two detectives in this book, they were easy to like and root for. It also kept me guessing as to who the killer was, awesome book. Love a book that keeps me engaged and wanting to read more! "
— Auralia, 1/25/2014 -
" In the Selena Alvarez & Regan Pescoli series, this book has a serial killer again proving the town of Grizzly Falls is not a safe place to live. The unique thing that rates this book 5 stars is the clever way the kills are done-- the women are encased in ice! It's one of those 'can't put down books' and it was very hard to finally close it last night past my bedtime with only 30 pages left to read! "
— Kay, 1/24/2014 -
" By-the-numbers serial killer thriller. My mom recommended it, and it was a quick read. The best thing about it was that the majority of the characters were strong females. "
— Sue, 1/19/2014 -

— Cynthiaj, 12/24/2013 -
" Excellent book as usual. Great plot, a bit of romance, and a freaky killer! Couldn't put it down! "
— Kristin, 12/17/2013 -
" This is another great addition to the To Die series. But for such a small town, they just have a lot of serial killers! "

" A story of 2 female detectives in a small town in Montana. There is a serial killer loose as there are two victims so far - their bodies found frozen solid and deliverately displayed. This is a very exciting book full of twists and turns. A great mystery thriller. "
— Peggy, 12/5/2013 -
" Enjoyable book, However, I felt that the ending was rather abrupt, as if the author ran out of time and had to finish the story. I guess it could have been a bit more detailed for me. "
— Tracy, 11/19/2013 -
" I enjoyed this story line it was so awesome!!!! "
— Marie, 10/9/2013 -
" Over all it was a ok book , to much things going on a the same time to the point you lost in the main focus of the book , and I never got the reason of way this guy have a personal issue with Selena or why he was killing all this girls. "
— Guadalupe, 10/9/2013 -
" This novel is not complicated, but offers a fast-moving story of a killer and two female police officers. Good for an afternoon read. "
