Synopsis

"Taut, twisty. . .Malice displays the skilled Jackson at her best yet." —The Providence JournalThe perfect moment is here at last. The humiliation and pain he put her through is about to be repaid. Soon Rick Bentz will know the torment of losing the person he loves most—and better yet, he'll have to watch. . ."Gripping. . .Jackson heightens the creep factor." —Publishers WeeklySince the accident that nearly claimed his life, New Orleans detective Rick Bentz has been on edge. That must explain why his mind is playing tricks, making him think he sees his first wife, Jennifer. His dead wife. He can't bring himself to tell his new wife, Olivia, about the sightings, or his fears that he's losing his sanity. To find answers, he has to return to Los Angeles, where Jennifer died. And it's there that the murders begin. . ."Plenty of clever plot turns. . .the suspense builds from the beginning." —Fresh FictionEach victim is linked to Jennifer's past, and each corpse points to Bentz as the prime suspect. But the worst is yet to come. Because now Olivia is missing, and the only way to save her is to uncover the terrifying truth about a woman he never really knew—and a hatred that runs deep enough to kill. . .

About Lisa Jackson

Born in Oregon in 1952, American author, Lisa Jackson, began her career in 1983 with her book, The Twist of Fate, and is still presently writing. She is a number one author on The New York Times bestselling list, writing more than 85 published novels. (She also uses the pseudonym of Susan Lynn Crose.)

As with many authors, Lisa began writing when she was a struggling mother, out of necessity to put food on the table. At that time, she probably did not realize that she would end up with a writing career putting her neck deep in romantic, murder mysteries. Lisa is best known for taking her readers to "the edge of sanity...... and back". Dangerous secrets, deadly passions, lies, clues, personal relationships.......all intertwined to create the terror and madness that can exist in the world.

Lisa is now a typical spoiling grandmother who loves her grandchildren and her little pug dog named Jackie-O-No. She loves old rock and roll, pop, and new country music. She leads a pretty quiet, fulfilling life in her native state of Oregon.......time with family, walks with her sister (also an author), coffee, crossword puzzles and great TV.

Goodreads review by Susan on June 09, 2009

What sounded like a promising story sort of degenerated into 'how many bad things can happen to the main character in one single book' by about the third or fourth chapter. Lisa Jackson definitely has the earmarks of a good writer, but the massive tragedy that was the life of this poor cop in her boo......more

Goodreads review by Carla on May 24, 2024

This was one of my personal reads. I love all of Lisa Jackson's books that I have read so far. I really thought I had this one figured out. But the killer I was wrong about again. The author always twists and weaves so far that when you think you've got it she takes a hard left. And then "Boom" mind......more
