Publisher's Summary

Round and round she goes, blonde pigtails flying, her high-pitched giggle catching on the wind. But as the ride slows to a stop, her seat is suddenly empty. Little Lucy is gone....

When seven-year-old Lucy Ross is snatched from the carousel in Denton city park, Detective Josie Quinn joins the frantic search. She’s the one who finds Lucy’s sparkly butterfly backpack abandoned by the ticket booth, a note with a devastating message stuffed inside: Answer your phone, or your sweet little darling will die....

The next day, Lucy’s parents are filled with hope when they pick up a call which they think is from their babysitter - but instead it’s a chilling male voice on the line. Josie races to the babysitter’s small apartment only to find her lifeless body in a tangle of sheets on her bed.

Josie is faced with the most high-stakes case of her career as each new phone call from someone connected to the family ends with the shocking discovery of another body. This twisted killer wants revenge, and he won’t stop until the Ross family are in pieces....

Something is telling Josie that Lucy’s parents aren’t giving her the whole truth, but digging deeper into their lives will force her to confront a life-changing secret of her own. Does Josie have what it takes to crack this case? She has no choice if she’s going to bring Lucy home alive....

An absolutely unputdownable new crime thriller from an Amazon, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal best-selling author. Listeners who love Robert Dugoni, Angela Marsons, and Rachel Caine will be hooked.

SERIOUSLY?!?

(Spoiler Alert!)

1. There is NO way that a sexually-active-for-years woman wakes up in the morning in a bed fitted with recently-washed sheets, and ends up having NO idea AT ALL as to whether or not she had heterosexual intercourse in that bed immediately before falling asleep. Without being too graphic here: there are easily-recognizeable physical, fluidic, and aromatic signs. It is pathetic and disappointing that Lisa Regan, the author of this novel, instead of exercising her brain to come up with a credible plot point, chose to use and thus perpetuate the totally bogus, but sadly common, fiction book/movie/tv-show trope of a character NOT being able to determine whether or not they recently had heterosexual intercourse. Oh, and that the editor of this novel let the trope’s inclusion stand. Sigh. I guess that this is yet another example of why one of my professional-editing instructors said that they no longer read fiction; seeing the lack of decent editing is just too frustrating.

2. As noted by at least one other reviewer, the main character, Josie, is suddenly an unobservant, gullible person, after NOT being so in the previous books.

3. Also, the most important thing to Josie, the LARGEST part of her personality for decades, is concern for the well-being of children, ESPECIALLY girls. Previously in this series of novels, Josie has multiple times ignored the emotional pain (both current and historic) and the physical pain of anyone who got in the way of a child being rescued. She has done anything and everything she could to get information that might lead to finding the missing child while they were still alive. Then, perplexingly, in this book, Josie is COMPLETELY different.

What. The. ?!?!?

disappointing

the narrator was OK. she started off a bit too pronounced but ended ok. I found I a bit disturbing that the author wanted the reader to sympathize with the character of Amy. To me I could not sympathize with a character who would abandon her child with a violent man and not look back even when she was safe. the main character Josie fell for her pity party hook line and sinker. This was disgusting for a police officer. Maybe there should have been a bit more info regarding Amy's life to warrant sympathy. how did Amy not spill the beans when she say a picture of the schools guest. these parts were very unrealistic and hurt the story.

I did like the flash back to the antagonists story. At first I thought it was Lucy. when I learned it was the kidnapper I completely understood the motives.
