"One of Lisa Gardner's best yet. The riddle of each body providing clues leading to the next abductee added another dimension to the suspense and intrigue of this novel. Another brilliantly written and cleverly plotted thriller."

" Another must read from Lisa Gardner!! I loved everything about it! "
— Lori, 2/19/2014" I read this because my Mom knows the author. Having such low expectations, it was actually a very enjoyable read. I especially enjoyed the backdrop of the Shenandoah National Park, Skyline Drive and Richmond, all areas I know well. Good for plane reading, but I would read more of Lisa Gardner... "
