Synopsis

What You See: another thrilling installment in Hank Phillippi Ryan's award-winning Jane Ryland mystery series.

Why would a father abduct his own child? A wedding is planned in Jane Ryland's family, but there's a disaster instead. Nine-year-old Gracie-supposed to be the flower girl-has been taken by her stepdad. Where are they? Is the girl in danger? Reporter Jane Ryland learns there's a limit to the bonds of family-and learns to her peril what happens when loved ones are pushed too far.

Meanwhile, Detective Jake Brogan's got a doozy of a case. At Boston's historic Faneuil Hall, a man is stabbed to death in front of a crowd of tourists snapping photos of the murder on their cell phones. Solving the case should be easy, but the pictures and surveillance video lead him to a dark conspiracy of extortion and stolen lives.

Jane and Jake must explore where their loyalties lie-to each other? To their families? To their careers? If they make the wrong decision, the consequences could be fatal.

Hank Philippi Ryan nails Boston! I'm not sure how she pulls it off, creating such page turners, one after the other after the next. She really had me twisted up in this one. After the set up, I then just kept on flipping and flipping, as she expertly kept me on the edge of the edge. Philippi Ryan is......more

Goodreads review by Jen on March 21, 2016

I liked it, it kept me intrigued, curious how it was going to all play out...but I don't particularly like the Jane Ryland character. It seems like Jake is the better main character and a series about him would be more interesting.......more

Goodreads review by Diane on December 10, 2017

This book had two totally unconnected stories except for the main two characters, Jane Ryland, a journalist between jobs and Jake, a police detective who is involved in some crazy cases.

Filled with the perfect parts of suspense, mystery, and everyday life, they really make me want to move to Boston and become an investigative reporter. Jane sees even more development in her personal life in thi......more

Goodreads review by PamG on March 02, 2019

This was another new author for me. The novel is well written, but it may progress more slowly than many would like. On the other hand, you may like getting to know the characters in more depth as I did. The story line is complicated with twists and turns and the main characters are likeable. There......more
