Say Goodbye ~ Lisa Gardner
About the Book (from the cover)
Young women are disappearing.....girls no one will notice are gone: prostitutes, runaways, high-risk teens. One night they exist, next morning they`ve vanished.
For Kimberly Quincy, FBI Special Agent, it all starts with a pregnant hooker. The story Delilah Rose tells Kimberly about one of her clients seems too horrifying to be true - but prostitutes keep disappearing, one by one, with no explanation, and no one but Kimberly seems to care.
Dead hookers aren`t exactly Kimberly`s speciality. The young agent is five months pregnant - and she has more to worry about than an alleged lunatic who uses spiders to do his dirty work. But Kimberly`s own mother and sister were victims of a serial killer. And now, without any bodies and with precious few clues, it appears that someone has found the key to the perfect murder....
The only lead - a man who gets his kicks in the creepiest of ways; a twisted sadist with a brutal past. Kimberly knows she mustn`t get caught in his web, but as the trail leads her closer, it seems she must become the prey if anyone else is to survive.
My Thoughts
I really like Lisa Gardners books, I`ve never been disappointed - and Say Goodbye is no exception. This is another of her very good crime novels. I found this book hard to put down, I was totally gripped from the word go.
I found it a very chilling story, quite disturbing infact. The subject matter in this book isn`t pleasant, child abduction for one, but I won`t say more than that, I imagine some people would find it difficult to read though.
It was fast paced, edge of the seat stuff, that left me thinking a great deal about things brought up in this story.
If you have a phobia of spiders, this book is not for you - don`t say I didn`t warn you!
I recommend this book.
