Brian Darby lies dead on the kitchen floor. His wife, state police trooper Tessa Leoni, claims to have shot him in self-defense, and bears the bruises to back up her tale. For veteran detective D. D. Warren it should be an open-and-shut case. But where is their six-year-old daughter? As the homicide investigation ratchets into a frantic statewide search for a missing child, D. D. Warren must partner with former lover Bobby Dodge to break the case.

The speed in which I read this book, while on tight deadline, shows how much I loved it.
Read it in a day because I couldn't put it down (that includes one of my kid's birthdays and running around all day with life stuff.)
Absolutely riveting page turner.
If you're a parent, you'll understand the lengths the heroine goes to in order to save her child.
The constant plot twists ensured the pages flew.
I'm a huge fan of Lisa Gardner and will eagerly await her next book.
Always a fan of a good murder mystery.
Lisa Gardner is a good story teller and keeps the audience guessing till the last chapter.
Listened to the audio book of one of her books for the first time.
I really enjoyed this book. I loved reading about Tessa Leoni's origin story. It made me like her character even more. D. D. Warren however not so much. D. D. is not a good detective in my eyes. She was outsmarted at every turn in this book, however I will extend some grace as she was going through some personal issues of her own. I really enjoy reading the Tessa Leoni series and I hope there is more to come.
Another solid 3,5 stars that kept me awake half the night hoping to know who I should sympathize with after all.
