A BUSTLE PERFECT VACATION READ

USA Today Bestseller

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson comes a new novel of nerve-jangling suspense as a woman haunted by guilt realizes that nothing can be trusted - not even her own memory...

IF YOU THINK SOMEONE IS OUT TO GET YOU...

There are people in Edgewater, Oregon, who think that twenty years ago, Rachel Gaston got away with murder. But Rachel still has no idea how a foolish teenaged game turned deadly - or who replaced her soft pellet air gun with a real weapon. When a figure jumped out at her from the darkness, she fired without thinking. By the time she recognized her half-brother, Luke, it was too late. Blood bloomed around his chest....

AND SOMEONE REALLY IS...

Rachel’s horrifying dreams about that night continue. Her anxiety contributed to her divorce from Detective Cade Ryder, though he blames himself too. And now, as Rachel’s high school reunion nears, she feels her imagination playing tricks on her. She’s sure that there’s a hint of unfamiliar cologne in the air. That someone is tailing her car. Watching her home...

THEN YOU’RE NOT PARANOID...

She’s right to be scared. And as connections surface between a new string of murders and Luke’s death, Rachel realizes there’s no escaping the past. And the truth may be darker than her worst fears...

This was an awesome book!

I always like Jackson’s writing style but she out did herself here. The story was great and twisted, the characters where good to hate and the ending was really freaky. I was well entertained!

it was ok but not great

When I first started listening to it I didnt like the part where the person is being hypnotized. It sounded like she was doing something very different. But the storyline was good and kept me going, just seemed too slow sometimes.

The narrator was good but the story was very unrealistic to me. It was a good listen though

Who deserves trust?

(As posted in GoodReads)
I found this book particularly good, because she went through so many layers of relationships. The main character had to deal both with her feelings of guilt and at the same time with deaths of friends. Meanwhile, relationship with their children appeared to be spinning out of control, and she had difficulty dealing with that at the same time, she had to contend with mixed feelings about people in her life and mixed and growing feelings for them. The author handled all of this in a gripping way that kept the reader guessing and not knowing what was going to happen. Overall, the ending was surprising and unexpected, and trusted people turned out to not be so trustworthy in the end, and new pictures and characteristics were seamlessly but critically created. You couldn't just pick up the book and know from the start who was a good guy and who the bad, nor could you guess who was going to be a disappointment and who a surprising and stalwart hero.

What a story!

This was such a great story. Had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I honestly didn't see multiple things coming. That's the most interesting books, in my opinion.
