Book Review: Look for me - L. Gardner


This is what I call an engrossing, perfect for summer novel! Loved it!
Book 9 of detective D.D. Warren aerie.
The plot is thick, twisted and capture you page after page. A really sad story of a family torn apart, reunited and destroyed again.
I read a couple of thrillers from Lisa Gardner before, which I really enjoyed, but I must say this is the best one I have read of hers so far.
Tension all through the plot. Definitely a great summer read!

Overall rating:  7,5    Plot: 8   Writing style: 7    Cover:  5

The Plot:
Detective DD Warren and Flora Dane are in a race against time to save a young girl's life – or bring her to justice. 
A family home has become a crime scene. Four are dead, savagely murdered. One – a sixteen-year-old girl – is missing. 
Did she have a lucky escape? Or is her absence evidence of something sinister?
Detective D. D. Warren is on the case, as is survivor-turned-avenger Flora Dane. 
Seeking different types of justice, they must make sense of the clues left behind by a young woman who could be victim or suspect. All they know is that the girl is silently pleading: Look for me...
