Publisher's Summary

One hot summer’s evening, 10-year-old Piper Chase went for a bike ride. She never came home....

Piper cycles off one hot Oklahoma evening for a sleepover with her new friend, Miley, from summer camp. But when she doesn’t come home, her grandparents raise the alarm. Their little angel is missing, last seen on her pink bicycle, heading toward the dark woods on Black Heart Lane. 

Detective Kimberley King knows that the first 24 hours in a missing-child investigation are the most critical, but with no witnesses, and darkness falling in the small town of Dead Woman Crossing, she begins to fear the worst. She longs to find the little girl with wide blue eyes and an infectious smile, but when her team discovers Piper’s body in a woodland clearing, lying on a bed of moss, something inside her dies. 

In a town where people leave their doors unlocked, Kimberley is terrified that another little girl might be snatched, and that night she holds her own daughter tighter. Desperate to find the monster who took the life of an innocent child, Kimberley chases down all the leads she has. The summer camp counsellor, who got too close to Piper and Miley and lost his job. Piper’s shifty uncle, who arrived back in town the day she disappeared....

Then she gets a call that chills her to the bone. Miley has gone missing. Has the killer who stole one little angel just taken another? 

A gripping, heart-wrenching crime thriller that will have you on the edge of your seat, holding your breath, Last Day Alive is perfect for fans of Rachel Caine, Lisa Regan, and Carol Wyer.

She's never disappoints...

This book has been in my pre-orders for a while.
I bought 'The Perfect Marriage' last year on a whim, and WOW!! I hadn't heard of this author before but after reading, listening to, this I was obsessed with finding more by her. That's when I found 'Dead Woman Crossing' and holy crap was I addicted. Although I was disappointed that there wasn't more by her I added this to my pre-orders and waited patiently, sort of, for 4/20.
It was definitely worth the wait. It's like I could picture this whole story playing out in my mind's eye. Twists and turns. Every time I thought I knew where this was going, BAM... Plot twist.

I don't want to give anything away but do yourself a favor and check this one out. You can listen to this as a stand alone but I recommend reading book #1 so you have a better idea as to the names and events.

JR Adler/Jeneve Rose has definitely shot up to one of my top 3 favorite authors. I can't wait for her next one!!!!

Terrible narration

I’ve listened to the first two books and the story is good enough. The narration is awful, being from OK is what kept me listening otherwise I would have just read the books.

Am I the only one annoyed by Jessica's voice?

I couldn't get into the story, but truly believe it's the exaggerated narration. Had to listen at 1.50 to get it over with. (better than the 1st book)

The performance is terrible, but the story is AWESOME

Jeneva Rose had me stumped! She kept me guessing till the big reveal. However, Patricia Rodriguez is AWFUL! Apparently, in Patricia’s world, 1 year olds, 2 year olds, and pre-teens all speak exacting the same way — the same tone, the same pronunciation, exactly the same. Jeneva is a wonderful storyteller, but PLEASE have someone — anyone else — narrate the next book!

Another good one on Dep. Chief King

This was a good quick read! And the narrator was 100x improved from the first book in the series.

Performance was over the top

Nice story but the narrator was so awful. So over the top, it made it hard to listen.

Sam and Kimberly

I wish they had wound up together in the end. But hopefully there is another book
