Local Girl Missing

Detective Josie Quinn, Book 15

De: Lisa Regan

Narrado por: Kate Handford

Through swirling dawn fog, they follow the trail of discarded items at their feet: a tube of glittery lip gloss; a cell phone; a cracked makeup compact, broken chunks of ivory powder spilling into the grass. Then the mist parts—just for a second—to reveal a beautiful young girl on the ground, her pale lips frozen forever in a silent scream....

On a winding mountain road into the small town of Denton, Pennsylvania, Detective Josie Quinn finds the body of a local teenage girl, Dina Hale. The sight of plum-colored bruises gathering around the girl’s neck pierces Josie’s heart, but the discovery of a second girl’s empty purse in the dirt nearby gives her a flicker of hope that one person, at least, made a lucky escape.

Dina’s parents are grief-stricken as the town rallies together in a desperate search for the second girl, Alison Mills, who waitressed with Dina at a local hotel. The two best friends were on their way to a shift when they were attacked. Josie was too late to save Dina, but she won’t rest until Alison is home safe.

Hitting a dead-end with interviews, Josie thinks she’s on to something when a photo surfaces suggesting Alison was romantically involved with one of the hotel staff. But when Josie arrives at the man’s house to find a bullet in his head and the house ransacked, the case comes crashing down.

Evidence of frantic searching at both crime scenes has Josie convinced a twisted killer is on a hunt for something very personal and precious. And that they won’t stop until they find it. But how many innocent lives will be destroyed before Josie can uncover the missing piece at the heart of this deadly puzzle? And what sacrifices will she have to make to find Alison alive?

Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Robert Dugoni, and Rachel Caine.

Warning: will keep you up all night!

Great book

This book’s story line
was great, but her character development was excellent.
I found my self screaming, “ come on don’t be so dumb.”
And “ Hurry up already.”
The characters came alive which gave the story its legs.. Highly recommend this book.

Josie Quinn

Lisa is able to keep you guessing and keep you in the edge of your seat with her riveting story writing!!

Lots of twists and turns

When Josie and Noah come upon a murder in progress…the case is just beginning…the friend of the murdered girl is missing. The suspect is running scared, but not from the law. The small PA town of Denton has become the focus of the mob! Told mostly from Josie’s POV but also includes snippets of a mystery person’s POV. Lots of action and very entertaining.
