Review: Look For Me by Lisa Gardner

Gardner shocks reader from the very beginning, opening with a grizzly scene—an entire family murdered execution style with the eldest daughter on the run. The clock starts ticking as Detective D.D. Warren and team race to find the teenage girl who could either be the culprit or in the crosshairs of a killer.

This fast-moving, fast-paced narrative certainly feels like a race as tension ratchets and bullets fly. There is never a dull moment as D.D. tries to unravel what seems to be an endlessly tangled tale of abuse, abandonment and anger.

Gardner brings back Flora Dane—whom we met in Find Her—a survivor turned vigilante who seeks the girl on the run for reasons all her own. It was a smart move to bring Flora back, as she added an exciting counterpoint to D.D. and their banter was great fun.

D.D. and Flora uncover surprising truths and everyone is a suspect at one time or another. Family, friendships and foster relationships are explored in this emotional, page-turning, thriller.
