    For the second time in his short life, Teddy Clock has survived a massacre. Two years ago, he barely escaped when his entire family was slaughtered. Now, at 14, in a hideous echo of the past, Teddy is the lone survivor of his foster family’s mass murder. Orphaned once more, the traumatized teenager has nowhere to turn - until the Boston PD puts Detective Jane Rizzoli on the case. Determined to protect this young man, Jane discovers that what seemed like a coincidence is one part of a killer’s mission.

    Great book...

    Twist at the end


    What does Tanya Eby bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    not much....


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    just wished it were longer

    Justin and Libby Denbe have the kind of life you’d find in the pages of a glossy magazine: A beautiful 14-year-old daughter. A gorgeous brownstone on a tree-lined street in Boston’s Back Bay neighborhood. A great marriage, admired by all. A perfect life. When investigator Tessa Leone arrives at the crime scene in the foyer of the Denbes’ home, she finds scuff marks on the floor and a million tiny pieces of bright green Taser confetti. The family appears to have been abducted.

    Janet says: "I'm exhausted! In a good way."
    "Lisa Gardner disappoints"

    What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

    A different story. It was simply boring.....and very predictable.


    What do you think your next listen will be?

    Not sure


    Which character – as performed by Elisabeth Rodgers – was your favorite?

    I guess Libby, the mother.....though the character was not very likable....


    What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

    disappointment....and anger that I had used a credit for it.


    Any additional comments?

    Have always enjoyed Lisa Gardner....but will have to put serious thought before I purchase another of her books after this one.

    After Nina Cormier was jilted at the altar, the empty church exploded. Then someone tried to run Nina off the road, and she realized someone wanted her dead--but who? That's what Detective Sam Navarro needs to find out...fast. With a nightmare unfolding around them, Sam and Nina decipher the stunning truth. Now they're at the mercy of a brilliant madman who plays for keeps.

    What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

    Totally predictable, no backbone to any of the characters and if I had not listened to so many books by Tess Gerritsen and this were my first one.....it would DEFINITELY be my last. I can't believe that she actually wrote this. Characters have no substance...plot is any that a sixth grader could write.....(and that's not being complimentary to sixth graders)
    AWFUL! Would LOVE to have my money back on this one!


    How did the narrator detract from the book?

    Flat, no emotion....might as well have been reading a cookbook.


    What character would you cut from Keeper of the Bride?

    The question should be which character would I KEEP


    Any additional comments?

    DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! I'M a huge fan of Gerritsen...but what a disappointment.
