Publisher's summary

Twenty-one years ago, Carol Fullerton's car was found abandoned by the side of a California highway. The teenager hasn't been seen or heard from since, and the case has long since gone cold. Now Carol's mother is dying. But before she draws her last breath she wants to know, once and for all, exactly what happened to her daughter....

Six months ago, Diane Kramer emptied her savings account and vanished. According to her sister, Andrea, the only clue to her whereabouts is her obsession with a charismatic weight-loss guru known for his unorthodox methods. Now Andrea fears Diane's body issues may have cost her more than she bargained for....

Kidnapped and terrorized as a teenager by a serial killer, Sacramento PI Lizzy Gardner knows better than anyone that letting go is easier said than done. The police have had their chance to save these women. Now it's Lizzy's turn.

Just so so

I did not enjoy this as much as I did the first Lizzie Gardner novel. It seems the author was trying desperately to formulate a good plot but I felt it was al over the place. Too many story lines and the weight loss solution was a stretch. Not a good read, but I finished it anyway.

Interesting.

I loved the story and I love the author. The end was a bit darker and I wasn't ready for that. But overall I enjoyed this book.

Great book #2 in the series

I gave book #1 in this Lizzy Garner series due to violent scenes. But book #2 is a great follow up.

Outstanding!

Another superb book by TR. Good story and I love all of the main characters. From the moment you read the first word you will not want to stop reading. To top it all off KATE RUDD is the best narrator on the planet!!

Excellent second book in the series

T.R.Ragan has written an excellent book for the Lizzy Gardner Series. Very well written and had me guessing (wrong) who actually did it! Keep up the good work Ms Ragan!
