Publisher's summary

One by one, they'll die....
Twenty years ago, wild child Jessie Brentwood vanished from St. Elizabeth's high school. Most in Jessie's tight circle of friends believed she simply ran away. Few suspected that Jessie was hiding a shocking secret - one that brought her into the crosshairs of a vicious killer.

Until there's no one left....
Two decades pass before a body is unearthed on school grounds and Jessie's old friends reunite to talk. Most are sure that the body is Jessie's, that the mystery of what happened to her has finally been solved. But soon, Jessie's friends each begin to die in horrible, freak accidents that defy explanation.

But her....
Becca Sutcliff has been haunted for years by unsettling visions of Jessie, certain her friend met with a grisly end. Now the latest deaths have her rattled. Becca can sense that an evil force is shadowing her too, waiting for just the right moment to strike. She feels like she's going crazy. Is it all a coincidence - or has Jessie's killer finally returned to finish what was started all those years ago?

Grow up

A past Lisa Jackson fan, I only finished listening to Wicked Game through sheer determination. Of the 16+ hours, maybe 4 actually advanced the storyline. The rest was teenage angst.

Great Series

Would you consider the audio edition of Wicked Game to be better than the print version?

I haven't read the print version.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes, the story has different subplots.

What about Susan Ericksen’s performance did you like?

She good with changing the voices just enough to keep the characters desperate.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Wicked...

Any additional comments?

Audible has all four of the books recorded. However when you look at the series, the titles are different. I finally looked at Lisa Jackson's website and realized that I had listened to all fours. The titles on Audible are different than those on Lisa's site. Would be nice to have the correct listings. Although I enjoyed the series, it might have been better if they were listed in order.

Audio review

Great narrator, good idea/concept story, but the longest and torturous way of telling the story. The first half of the book could be mostly cut and the last half is better. Ended up fast forwarding through a good third of it to get to the end.

Not like other Lisa Jackson books

This one was slow and hard to follow. Would not recommend and I read a lot of books.

Soo slow and the ending was dumb.

I would like to request my credit refunded. This Novel was all over place, really hard to keep interest.

I want my money back.

I want my money back for this audiobook. I don't know why it came up in my recommendations. the title and the overview sounded great but it was just some repetitive ramblings with a week story and grown adults acting like teenagers. was this supposed to be for YA? I don't think so because of the foul language.

First in a series

Review is for ebook AND especially the Audible

Based on this ebook, the rest of the series is on my must read list. I started listening to this ebook with just the text to speech feature and enjoyed the book so much I decided to get the Audible. The Audible made an already enjoyable book an excellent book. Ten stars for the Audible.

Be prepared for a wild ride. There are so many twists and turns you might need a "GPS" cheat sheet. The characters are very well thought out. Love Becca and Hudson but my favorite character is Ringo. That's a given. The intermingled plotlines are expertly woven together. I cannot wait to read the rest of the books. With the Audible's of course..

Needless to say, I highly recommend this book. An I have a new author to check out in Nancy Bush.

Iffy

I did not like the prologue and I really didn’t like it when the main killer was talking; it was just creepy to me. There was not a lot of bad language but, surprisingly there was more sex then I thought there maybe should have been for a murder/mystery.
There was a sci-fi element in the form of precognition and visions but there are no ghosts or demons, just pure evil.
The narrator, Susan, miss pronounced some words, it only bugged me because, they are not hard words like, windy. I get that the English language has many words that are maybe spelled the same but depending on the way the word is used in the sentence, is what decides how to pronounce that word. Whatever…
I like Lisa Jackson for the most part, even though this is not my favorite genre of book but, I don’t think that I will continue with the series.
