#1ย New York Timesย bestselling author Lisa Gardner unites three of her most beloved charactersโDetective D. D. Warren, Flora Dane, and Kimberly Quincyโin a twisty new thriller, as they investigate a mysterious murder from the past…which points to a dangerous and chilling present-day crime.
FBI Special Agent Kimberly Quincy and Sergeant Detective D. D. Warren have built a task force to follow the digital bread crumbs left behind by deceased serial kidnapper Jacob Ness. When a disturbing piece of evidence is discovered in the hills of Georgia, they bring Flora Dane and true-crime savant Keith Edgar to a small town where something seems to be deeply wrong. What at first looks like a Gothic eeriness soon hardens into something much more sinister…and they discover that for all the evil Jacob committed while alive, his worst secret is still to be revealed. Quincy and DD must summon their considerable skills and experience to crack the most disturbing case of their careersโand Flora must face her own past directly in the hope of saving others.
In WHEN YOU SEE ME, Lisa Gardner teams up survivor-turned-vigilante Flora Dane, Boston detective D.D. Warren, and FBI agent Kimberly Quincy to deliver another edge-of-your-seat thriller.
Thereโs no one quite like Gardner, who can ratchet tension, weave fascinating character interactions and impart a procedural thatโs surprising, exciting, emotional and chilling all at once. In this latest, we explore the sinister happenings in the town of Niche, a quaint small town nestled in the hills of Georgia.
After hikers discover the remains of a woman, Agent Quincy pulls together D.D., Flora and Keith (computer geek and true-crime savant) into an investigative task force. What starts off as a murder investigation turns into something far more menacing with potential ties to Floraโs kidnapper, Jacob Ness.
The team must not only figure out what is happening and who is behind it, but to do so, Flora must confront her trauma head on, delving into her past in order to save others like her.
Like every Lisa Gardner novel, this is one you canโt help but devour. The mystery at the center is engrossing with its every twist and turn, the pace is lightning fast, the tension nonstop and deliciously unbearable at times. But itโs the characters who really shine as they work together and care for each other. In particular, Floraโs development captivates, as she works to confront and overcome her trauma, beyond surviving and into something far more promising. Plus, a new character will tug at your heartstrings, as she too works to prevail over a painful past, and the the clutches that bind her.
WHEN YOU SEE ME is a must-read powerhouse page-turner teeming with action, emotion and kick-ass heroines.
