- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This novel contains everything an intense thriller/suspense novel should. Creepy psychotic bad guy, strong driven and intelligent hero/heroine, and plot twists that you didn't quite see coming. It also contains enough information to give you empathy for the characters so that you are rooting them on all the way.
Lisa Gardner is a master of her craft. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A solid thriller by Gardner with her signature grusome crimes and detailed character development. The romance between the two protagonists was unexpected and nice.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Hot summers are deadly as victims discover. A killer takes two victims, leaving the first with clues on how to find the second. Special Agent Mac McCormack has been tracking the killer for a number of years. Kimberly Quincy is a rookie FBI agent living in the shadows of her famous father, FBI profiler Pierce Quincy. When Kimberly stumbles over a victim left on the property of Quantico, she is compelled to help find the killer. Herself a survivor of an attack that left her sister and mother dead, Kimberly feels a need to prove she can save someone. This is not the normal nail biting, grisley murders I am used to reading from Lisa Gardner. It seems more of a romantic suspense but the action is tense and page-turning, especially since this time the killer took four victims. This book is from 2003.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5What an exciting story and what exciting characters!!! Lisa grabs your attention immediately with the body of college girls found completely clothed and with their purses in the prologue. The book begins with training camp for future FBI agents centering on a young woman named Kimberly who was the daughter of a former agent. While running during training, Kimberly comes across the body of a young woman. This begins Kimberly's quest to help solve these murders which prove to be from a serial killer. With the help of an agent from Atlanta and her father and his partner, they begin the quest to find three more missing women with clues left purposely by the killer.

Not one of her best, but it still holds your attention as the tension builds.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good book. I read it one afternoon when I wasn't feeling well and wanted to curl up and just read. I didn't put it down.Mostly suspense, with just a bit of romance. Other reviewers have given a thorough synopsis, so I won't. I enjoyed it!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5It's been a while since I've read a suspenseful thriller that had me at the edge of my seat for the entire story.On one of the hottest summer's day in Georgia, 2 women go to a bar and are never heard from again. One of them is found by the side of the road, dead. A few months later, the 2nd woman is found dead in a different area. The following year, on an extremely hot day, another 2 girls go to a bar and are never heard of again. One is found dead, by the side of the road. Her friend is found a few months later in an unrelated area.The same thing happens twice more and then suddenly ... nothing. The Eco-killer, as the serial killer has come to be known, has gone to ground. Or has he?Has he surfaced again, 5 years later, when another female body is found. Were there and are there, subtle clues on the bodies that are blatantly left to be found easily that could lead to the discovery of the other missing woman before she's dead? Why is Special Agent McCormack receiving calls from someone claiming to know who the killer is, and warning him of future kills? A new FBI recruit, with her own traumatic past, teams up with McCormack to find the 2nd girl before dies. Add to this team, a profiler, the FBI, the NCIS, geologists, dendrologist, linguist ... and you have a race against time, with seemingly obscure clues, snakes, vicious bugs, and the killing heat.There are surprises at every corner, just when you think you've cracked the case, identified the serial killer, or identified one of the girls, a sharp twist flips you upside down and leaves you reevaluating what you thought you knew.A fantastic suspenseful thriller.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5So far so good, sounds like a budding Clarice Starling only tougher. Good detail about FBI
