This book grabbed me from the "get go." I found the characters interesting, well written, and captivating. It did not drag for one moment. I can hardly wait to read the next one about this main character. Well done!

Although recommended by another site, I found the novel banal. Save your money. Buy something else. Buy something else. Sigh

Great book. I felt like the characters were real and the event possible. The traumas, the joys, they all seem to work. I got right into the story and never doubted its realism.

A book of one woman’s need to prove herself worth while. An interesting, thought provoking, and twisting story. A must read for amateur sleuths

5.0 out of 5 stars Hard to put down
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 26, 2023

I enjoyed this book and once I got into it found it hard to put down. At first it was difficult to imagine a middle aged white woman entering an all black and rough neighborhood to search for a missing teen age girl but as you come to understand who she is and why she chooses to do this you really get caught up in the story. I certainly recommend it. I would have preferred a happy ending for the main character but it was realistic considering who she was and her circumstances.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Story
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 11, 2023

I enjoyed this book so much. Frankie is a recovering alcoholic who lost a man she loved and needed. She carries that guilt and it is what drives her forward in her quest to bring missing people home. Lots of action tied on with a huge lack of humanity on one hand and a huge amount of humanity and empathy on the other hand.

4.0 out of 5 stars Newly Found!
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 19, 2023

A guilt-driven tracer of lost persons, Frankie is the polar opposite of Thomas Perry’s Jane, who hides them, but no less interesting. Wow. Lisa Gardner has a newly-found fan.
