Close Her Eyes

Detective Josie Quinn, Book 17

By: Lisa Regan

Narrated by: Kate Handford

The young woman lay among the rocks next to the creek like a broken doll, strands of her long dark hair covering her face. Her body was the kind of cold that only the dead can be....

A body lies beside Kettlewell Creek, the waters rushing and churning next to her broken form. When Detective Josie Quinn arrives at the scene, she finds few clues and a victim with no enemies. Nineteen-year-old Sharon Eddy was cherished by her beloved grandmother, who raised her, and her death shocks the Denton community where she worked at the local animal hospital.

When Josie is called to the morgue to hear the results of Sharon’s autopsy, the case takes a sinister turn. She is horrified to see that a mark has been burned on to Sharon’s left hip with a cattle brand: a horseshoe shot through with an arrow. Shaken and terrified, the usually cool and collected Medical Examiner Anya Feist lifts her own top to show Josie an identical mark. Ten years ago, Anya fled her hometown after her marriage to her high school sweetheart ended in terror.

But Josie can find nothing to connect Anya’s ex-husband Vance Hadlee to the murder. Her search of his family farm leads to more questions than answers.

Then another body is found. A young woman in a red coat, lying in her final resting place, her hip bearing the same tell-tale horseshoe mark. As Josie gets closer to finding the truth, the killer creeps ever closer to home, threatening the lives of those Josie loves the most. Can she put together the pieces of this terrifying puzzle before it’s too late?

A completely gripping crime thriller from an Amazon, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal best-selling author. Gripping and guaranteed to keep you up all night, it’s perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Robert Dugoni, and Rachel Caine.

Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic!

Another great book by Lisa Reagan. She writes a wonderful book, so suspenseful you don’t know who did it until the very end. You actually can’t put the book down because you enjoy it so much. I’ve caught myself listening to it in bed as my husband sleeps. Thank you so much can’t wait for the next one.

Love it

This book was incredible. Had me on edge till the very end. I usually know who did it half way through the book but this one had so many twist and turns I couldn’t figure it out. Well written indeed

Exciting!

Close Her Eyes kept me wondering what is next! I screamed Not Mettner! Never thought Hallie would be the culprit. Can’t wait to read Book 18 to find out what Josie’s next adventure is!

Loved it, also heartbreaking

I’m not crying, you’re crying! Another great story, suspenseful but this one was heartbreaking on another level… especially if you’ve been along for this ride since book 1. No spoilers, I’m not a crier, but I cried.

Heartbreaking!!

Lisa Regan with another fantastic novel!! I love the Josie Quinn series, this one kept me up at night! It was heartbreaking without giving it away, can’t wait to see what the team gets in to next!
