Cross Justice by James Patterson best Alex cross book in last 8 years

Cross Justice by James Patterson best Alex cross book in last 8 years.

Alex's cousin Stefan has been arrested of a awful, unimaginable murder, and Cross drives south with Bree, Nana Mama, Jannie, and Ali to Starksville, North Carolina, for the 1st time in thirty-five years. Back home, he finds out a once happy community, down on its luck, and community citizens don't welcome him with open arms. As Cross steps into his family house, the horrors of his childhood overflow back--and he discovers that they're not actually over. He produces all his skill to discovering the truth about his cousin's situation. But simple fact is difficult to come by in a area where no one feels protected to speak.

With Cross Justice, bestselling author James Patterson comes back with his most prominent personality in a story that is both equally clentching and fast-paced. Followers of the expert storyteller can remain confident in the understanding that this episode of the series is much superior than the insipid Cross My Heart and Hope to Die. It is as compelling as ever before with Cross returning home for the first time after thirty-five years, only to be encountered with a overwhelming task as he finds himself ensnared in a problem of severe fact and insider secrets, and an enemy as dangerous as any other. What persuaded Alex and his family to return home was the forthcoming trial of his cousin, Stefan Tate, a gym teacher arrested of torturing and killing a thirteen-year-old boy named Rashawn Turnbull.

It’s twenty-three years and twenty-three repayments of justice the Alex Cross-way since the first book in the collection, Along Came a Spider, came out in 1992. James Patterson has modified little. His trademark short chapters carry on to enthrall audience, and his publications proceed to sell like crazy. They continue to generate interest, and make for an exciting and fast read. My admiration for him is full to the brim though I was tempted to give up after Cross My Heart, but as a die-hard fan, though I groaned, and grumbled, I can’t get myself to actually act.

Alex Cross series is the only series that James Patterson writes without a co-author, which is a good thing. Cross Justice is the very best Alex Cross thriller that I have read in a very long, long time. With distinct twists and spins, readers are in for a real and captivating treat. The appearance of a family member whom Alex thought was dead was a nice surprise. The Reverend Alicia, Marvin Bell, the police chief and the local judge all played a pivotal role in the story. The toast "May God bless the Crosses" at the end magnificently sums up one of the best Alex Cross novels, and James Patterson followers couldn't have expected for a better ending. I look forwards to several more from him.

Lost Girls: A rapid paced, clenching thriller novel (Detective Kim Stone crime thriller series Book 3)

Amazingly gripping, powerful, action-packed book and undoubtedly one of my favorites.



Lost Girls is the 3rd book in the D.I Kim Stone collection. Even while I have read the prior two
books I in fact think Lost Girls pretty easily reads as a stand alone novel, however would
definitely suggest reading the first two novels also as they are superb books.
The story line in Lost Girls, as a mother or father, truly did make for an uneasy read in areas but
was amazed and truly consumed by it.
I don’t know if it was due to the fact of the dynamics of the case but Kim appeared a lot more
energetic than usual. I genuinely would not want to get on the inappropriate side of her. She
undoubtedly put more than a couple of individuals in their places, which a couple of people
more than well deserved it and I thoroughly enjoyed reading through those sections.
The desperation of the circumstance of the two lost girls really comes through in the book and
Lost Girls genuinely makes for a fast moving and clenching read which, by the finish I was
virtually holding my breath, wishing that Kim and her team would resolve the situation and find
both girls safe and more essentially alive.
The sections with Charlie and Amy delivered chills all through me. You could sense the genuine
fear and terror that both girls were enduring. This is unquestionably not a read for the weak
hearted but for true crime thriller fans this is undoubtedly a must read.
The writer surely knows how to interlace a tale that performs games with the audience minds
never mind the characters. With twists and turns it is a story that will absolutely get your heart
beating.
Fantastic book in which for me is very much a 5 star collection.

MURDER HOUSE, by James Patterson and David Ellis Patterson's best book in 2 years

No. 7 Ocean Drive is a gorgeous, multi-million-dollar beachfront estate in the Hamptons, where money and privilege know no bounds. But its beautiful gothic exterior hides a horrific past: it was the scene of a series of depraved killings that have never been solved. Neglected, empty, and rumored to be cursed, it's known as the Murder House, and locals keep their distance. 
MURDER HOUSE, by James Patterson and David Ellis. The concept of suspense in this chiller is a 200 year old, abandon, scary house situated at No. 7 Ocean Drive in the Hamptons. Ex - NYPD undercover detective, Jenna Rose Murphy, is chosen by her uncle, Landon James, the police chief of the small town of Bridgehampton. Jenna has frequently been scared of exactly what she’s not sure—since her landing in this small town. As a very young gal she recalls traveling to the town in the course of several summers with her mother and father. She just lately come to affiliate the monster mansion with its gargoyles and spears on the roof with her dreams and sleepless nights. She feels something disturbing took place at the mansion that included her in some way when she was very young. Jenna’s first task as the town’s detective is to investigate the ferocious murder of a Movie mogul and his lover whose butchered bodies were uncovered in the mansion. Six more savage murders soon follow. The authors’ brilliant writing leaves the reader in the dark as to the killer/killers until the very last chapter. Patterson and Ellis formulated their characters well. The conversation is catchy as Jenna leads us on her voyage through the mystery with its page turning twists and turns. Patterson’s short chapters make for easy reading. Murder House is a excellent novel, the best the author has written in a couple of years. I give the story a 5-star rating.

The Prettiest One: A Thriller/dark exciting/fast paced book you have to read

When Caitlin Sommers discovers herself alone in a empty parking lot with blood on her clothing
and no memory of the prior few months, it seems like one of the nightmares that have
tormented her for years but it’s all too genuine. Determined to find out the truth about where
she’s been and what has transpired to her but terrified of what she may uncover, Caitlin
embarks on a search for answers. Her voyage takes her from the safe suburban community she
understands to a seedy town she’s never heard of, where a terrible truth from her past lies
hidden, a truth she can’t quite recall yet can’t entirely forget.
After pursuing careers in screenwriting and later the law, bestselling author James Hankins committed himself to writing fiction and has written four popular thrillers—Shady Cross, Brothers and Bones, Jack of Spades, and Drawn—each of which became Amazon #1 bestsellers. Additionally, Brothers and Bones received a starred review from Kirkus Reviews and was named to its list of Best Books of 2013.
What an extraordinary story this is from page one until the ending.
Just about when I imagined I had a segment of it
figuredout, I admit that I was completly wrong. And, my investagating common sense did not help for the other parts of the book either. An superb plot motivated by some intriguing character types makes this one a serious page turner. And, the progression of the characters is fantastic which includes both the good guys and the nasty ones. The publishing style is clean and flows easily and the detailed portions will make one wince at times. One thing that I really relished was the two strong women characters Caitlin and Detective Charlotte Hunnsaker.

Laughter is interjected all through the book to allow the readers an possibility to get their breath. After I completed reading this book I kept thinking of it for days ,that is a sign of a great thriller. Mr. Hankins has gone deeply into the minds of two generations with simplicity and also explained in detail the manner in which a distressing event impacts a person.

Most highly recommended and for a number of reasons.

"Make Me" Jack Reacher is at his best again in this action packed thriller

"#Make #Me" #Jack #Reacher is at his best again in this #action #packed #thriller out sept 8th
“Why is this town called Mother’s Rest?” That’s all Reacher needs to know. But no one will explain to him. It’s a very small place concealed in a thousand square miles of wheat fields, with a railroad stop, and sullen and mindful individuals, and a uneasy lady named Michelle Chang, who mistakes him for somebody different: her missing partner in a private investigation she thinks must have commenced small and then transformed dangerous.

Reacher has no specific place to go, and all the time in the world to get there, and there’s a thing about Chang . . . so he teams up with her and begins to ask around. He perceives: How awful can this thing be? But before long he’s stepped into a frantic race through LA, Chicago, Phoenix, and San Francisco, and through the hidden parts of the internet, up versus thugs and assassins every move of the way—right back to where he started, in Mother’s Rest, where he must encounter the worst nightmare he could visualize.

Walking away would have been less complicated. But as always, Reacher’s rule is: If you want me to stop, you’re going to have to make me.

He seems to have got off a train in the midsection of wheat country, for no greater motives than he liked the mysterious name of the town, Mother’s Rest, and that he’s got tried and true intuition for sniffing out problems. Lee Child’s Reacher series has struck Book No. 20 with a unquestionable stream of wisecracking entertainment (“Are you going to be a problem?” “I’m already a problem. The issue is, what are you going to do about it?”). Every little thing about it, beginning with Reacher’s nose for bad news, is as powerful as ever before.

Keep that in mind next time somebody tells you that Mr. Child, whose perinal tough-guy thrillers all adhere to the same fundamental rules, is just one more style type repeating himself in a mechanized way.

“Make Me” is a incredibly hot one. So was “Never Go Back” two years ago, but the tepid “Personal” (2014) came between them. Mr. Child does his best work when he endeavors into bold new obstacles, and “Personal” didn’t provide any. “Make Me” provides a massive one, but it takes its sweet time in exposing what, precisely, is underfoot in the vaguely menacing hick town that tempts Reacher.
There are indicators that this a heart forthe agricultural business there is five very massive grain lifts in a place that has very few folks in it. (Reacher guesses the human population must be a thousand. But we hear from only about a dozen people, all of whom wish he’d go away.) And there is one other visitor, a beautiful woman detective named Chang whose partner, Keever, has inexplicably vanished. To the surprise of all the moles in Mother’s Rest, who make phone calls reporting on Reacher’s location whenever they see him, he and Chang move into the nearby motel trying to determine out where Keever has gone.

Not much to operate with, is it? Specifically when Mr. Child has to summarize the basic things about Reacher that he’s said in each one of these books. What does he carry with him? Usually the answer is “Everything I need and nothing I don’t,” which can mean a toothbrush. This time it’s “a few bucks in my pocket, and four points on the compass.” He’s also inquired where he lives. (“Nowhere. In the world. Right here, today.”) And what kind of nothing he does. (“I travel. I see things. I go where I want.”)
This is the book that will take Reacher from the kind of wise cracking  his followers love and the physical violence that he comprehends (he actually hurts himself head-butting this time, another new perspective for the series), into the eerie concrete realities of 2015, not the ones Reacher learned in the last century as part of his military training.

He’s a fast study, but he has been unaware about a large, horrific, intangible part of the planet in which fantasies rule, no thought is forbidden and a great deal of people die. “Make Me” will surprise some of Mr. Child’s readers if they know nothing of the hidden world that Reacher detects. Clarity has always been one of Mr. Child’s strong suits. One of reachers better books read it.

Stephen King ’s Finders Keepers- Absolutely outstanding,dark, powerful, exciting novel

Released today
A outstanding,dark, powerful, exciting novel about a reader whose fixation with a reclusive
author goes beyond darkness and reality, a book about the electricity of storytelling, featuring
the same trio of improbable and winning heroes King introduced in Mr. Mercedes.
and begins King’s instantaneously captivating story about a vengeful reader. The master is
John Rothstein, a legendary author who developed a famous character, Jimmy Gold, but who
hasn’t released a book for decades. Morris Bellamy is beside himself, not just because
Rothstein has ceased delivering books, but because the nonconformist Jimmy Gold has sold
out for a career in marketing. Morris kills Rothstein and empties his safe of money, yes, but
the genuine prize is a chest of notebooks that contains at least one more Gold novel.
Morris hides the cash and the notebooks, and then he is put away for a different crime. Years
later, a kid named Pete Saubers finds the treasure, and now it is Pete and his family that Bill
Hodges, Holly Gibney, and Jerome Robinson must save from the ever more deranged and
vengeful Morris when he’s released from prison after thirtyfive
years.
Not since Misery has King competed with the concept of a reader whose obsession with a
writer gets hazardous. Finders Keepers is magnificent, heartpounding
thriller,very dark, very
suspenseful will make your skin crawl as only King at his best can do,this is one of King's
better books in years read it .
Massacre and also save the life of Pete Saubers from the clutches of a nearderanged
Morris
Bellamy. While the main thread of the story revolves around Pete and Bellamy, it also delves
deep into the plot of Mr. Mercedes and the massacre which took the lives of eight innocent
people, maimed three, seriously injured twelve and caused minor injuries to seventeen others.
Finders Keepers by Stephen King begins in the year 1978 with the murder of a novelist at his
New Hampshire cabin by a diehard
admirer. The cloistered eightyyearold
novelist John
Rothstein found himself awake when the privacy of his cabin was invaded by an obsessed fan
Morris Bellamy and two accomplices. Not content with the cash available, Bellamy wants to
make sure if the rumoured sellout
of his favorite character Jimmy Gold in the next Rothstein
novel is true, and the ensuing melee proved disastrous.
Bellamy’s plans unraveled when he was arrested and sent to prison for thirtyfive
years for
another violent crime, but not before he stashed the loot away. A high school student Pete
Saubers, whose father Thomas Saubers was seriously injured in Mr. Mercedes, and whose
family is struggling to make both ends meet, found the buried treasure and sent the money to
his parents concealing his real identity while keeping the drafts of Rothstein’s novels. All hell
broke loose when Bellamy is released on parole in 2014 and discovered his treasures
missing. It is up to King’s likeable trio of Bill Hodges, Jerome Robinson and Holly Gibney to
keep Pete from harm’s way and protect his family.
Finders Keepers by Stephen King is an ambitious and wellcrafted
hardboiled
thriller which
can be read as a standalone
though it is the middle book of a trilogy. Its masterful pacing and
riveting plotting makes it a heart thumping read, intensely thrilling and absolutely gripping.
Author Stephen King as is his wont, delivers a novel that has stunned me by its shrewdness
and ability to sustain interest.
#This review is from an uncorrected proof advance reading copy.

A Lifetime Last Night by David Homick pleasant and thought-provoking and exciting

Although I do not know Dave Homick I should, as we both live in Auburn N.Y a very small town in upstate New York I know many people who know Dave they all agree he is a great guy,and I think now we all agree he is a great, talented writer also. I would love to see a writer from our town make it big with a N.Y times best seller and Dave is our best shot. This book is not a new subject line,Warren Beatty came back in a different body to win a super bowl in Heaven can wait a old mediocre movie for his standards,Once there was a T.V series on this subject also.Dave takes this subject to a new level with the unique idea of making things right with his wife before he departs this world,the char actors are well defined you will fine a little bit of yourself in all of them,

Review from Goodreads
This novel is very well written and the story flows easily, and if I didn't know it was the author's first, I would not have suspected it. Despite the genre not being one I normally read, the writing and story kept me interested and I read it in a weekend. If you enjoy a nice story about love and forgiveness with a metaphysical twist, I highly recommend this book.

There is romance,tragedy,incitement,soul baring,mystery, all the things it takes to make a best sellers most of all IT is well written not at all would u guess it is a first book of the author.I predict this book to do well very well as a matter of fact it is a great book. Thank you Dave for a great read millions will enjoy, all of us in Auburn are very proud of you.

A Lifetime Last Night' starts off with a guy waking up in hospital and discovering that absolutely everyone thinks he is somebody else. Then the story goes back a few several weeks to the marital problems of Richard and Emily. What comes after for some time is a quite common tale until around half way through the book  when Richard has an accident and wakes up in a different body. This is when it gets really fascinating. We find that Richard has been given another opportunity to make things right with Emily, but he will have to do it in the body of the man who killed him in the accident.

The metaphysics here is the concept that we have hurdles with various people and that we must live again and yet again with them until we meet the challenge. Richard and Emily have been just missing for lifetimes, but this time Richard gets some divine assistance in the form of an old man called Arthur. Living months as a different person trying to win her heart gradually presents a renewed sense of his place in the world and the significance of his partnership with his wife.

The characters are extremely strong and the relationships credible. The writing is uncomplicated but powerful and flows well, making it a highly readable book. The book is well methodized and moves at a excellent pace. The author takes an fascinating premise and brings the story to life in a way that is both pleasant and thought-provoking.

The Last Mile (Amos Decker series book 2) another outstanding Amos Decker story from David Baldacci

Is now out read our review 

In David's #1 New York Times bestseller Memory Man, David Baldacci launched the astonishing detective Amos Decker-the man who can't forget anything. Now, Decker comes back in a breathtaking new thriller . . .
THE LAST MILE

Almost two decades afterwards now a police detective, Decker returned home from a
stakeout one evening and entered a nightmare his wife, young daughter, and brotherinlaw
had been murdered.
His family demolished, their killer's id as unexplained as the objective behind the crime, and
not able to forget a single detail from that terrible night, Decker finds his world crumbling
around him. He leaves the police force, loses his home, and winds up on the street, taking
minor jobs as a private investigator when he can.
But over a year later, a man turns himself in to the police and confesses to the murders. At
the same time a horrifying event nearly brings Burlington to its knees, and Decker is called
back in to help with this investigation. Decker also grabs his chance to learn what really

plethora of colors and memories that he could effortlessly access. With his new capabilities,
he's the ideal applicant to become a police detective. He can go to a crime scene once and
walk through it over and over again in his brain, and he can remember word for word
testimony by a witness or suspect.
His life is demolished when he comes home and finds that his wife, young daughter and
brotherinlaw
have been murdered. He can never forget about the scene, and with no
witnesses and little data, he sinks into hopelessness. Decker ends up leaving the force and
becomes homeless. He works as a private detective but has few clients, and he's humiliated
by his overall look and how low he has fallen.

Red Notice by Bill Browder A great true Political thriller

The true Powerful story of activist Bill Browder's life in Russia among the rich and powerful. An American moves to Russia in the Crazy 1990s. He makes a heap of money trading in the stock market, makes a enemy of Vladimir Putin and his mobsters of his thieving empire, and becomes deported. His best friend and lawyer is murdered bye  Vladimir Putin's thugs as so many of his foes are.Rather than lying low, he battles back. He turns into an global crusader for justice.

A genuine political thriller about an American investor in the Wild East of Russia, the killing of his young tax attorney, and his risky quest to uncover the Kremlin’s corruption.

Bill Browder’s voyage started on the South Side of Chicago and shifted to Stanford Business School to the insane community of hedge fund investing in the 1990s. It carried on in Moscow, where Browder made his fortune heading the largest investment fund in Russia after the Soviet Union’s collapse. But when he revealed the corrupt officials who were robbing the companies in which he was investing, Vladimir Putin flipped on him and, in 2005, had him expelled from Russia.

As a youthful management advisor in London, he conveyed a unexplained interest in Eastern Europe, and just after the Berlin Wall drops, he had a humorous adventure trying to rebuild a Polish bus company. This led to him establishing his own investment firm, Hermitage Capital. In December 1995 at age 31, Browder moved to Moscow.

Red Notice is the tale of Bill Browder's hedge fund, Hermitage Capital, which at one time was the most significant foreign investor in Russia. Hermitage created extremely high profits and, before its collapse, Browder had four and a half billion dollars under his management. As opposed to hedge funds like Long Term Capital Management, the fund did not blowup. Alternatively, it was ruined by the corrupt Russian government. This the narrative of Heritage Capital's rise and fall. It is also the saga of the murder of a Russian tax lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky who worked for Browder. Red Notice is also an account of Bill Browder's campaign for justice for Magnitsky.
This is a amazing book read it.

The Girl on the Train an exceptional psychological thriller By Paula Hawkins

The Girl on the Train is a snug thriller with some refreshingly authentic terrible charators and a complex mix of narrative voices, but its narrow vision lacks some of the substantial social criticism of its American competitors, and there are times in the very last act when the crazy and sane  plot show a little too evidently.It is not another gone girl but it is a dam good book.

Hawkins exhibits real expertise in changing the characters’ voices at just the perfect time to bring up the anxiety. The delicate revelations about each of the character types and how they connect to the present scenario are drip-fed to the audience with perfection, and the author is excellent at making insignificant details all of a sudden have a huge importance.


THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN is a dim, haunting and demoralizing psychological thriller, but it's exceptionally powerful thanks to the publishing skills of writer Paula Hawkins. Rachel is a divorced female who would do whatever it takes for a drink, and like a good deal of people absorbed by a love affair with the bottle, one could possibly call her a unwilling recipient of circumstances. Her husband Tom had an affair that resulted in a pregnancy. He divorced Rachel, married his pregnant girl friend  and now all three (partner, spouse and baby) are contentedly residing in the house that was one time Rachel's.

The train that Rachel boards to London each day takes her past her old neighborhood. From the window of the train she views not only her old backyard garden that backs up to the tracks, but also the everyday routines of another husband and wife who live down the street from her former home. In her creative thinking she has presented the couple names and has produced a fairy story love life for them. Genuine life, however, cannot live up to her imagination and the couple does not have the picture perfect relationship that Rachel has dreamed
. When a murder occurs, Rachel becomes entangled in the investigation because of what she has witnessed on her daily commute.

This relatively gloomy story with intersecting timelines is told from the perspective of three different women Rachel, Anne and Megan. All the women are untrustworthy narrators with something to cover up. In fact, most of the people in this novel, which includes the men, lack veracity, and are a self-serving and unsympathetic group with plenty of skeletons in their closets.

Lest I proceed and disclose too much of the plot, let me just say that the twists and turns in the story are many and readers will be effortlessly drawn in, making it easy to get through this book in one afternoon.Clentching, enchanting - a top-notch thriller and a obsessive read i really like the dark suspense of this book buy it read it you will never regret it.

Effortless Healing: 9 Simple Ways to Sidestep Illness/this book can save your life

Effortless Healing: 9 Simple Ways to Sidestep Illness
I discovered EFFORTLESS HEALING to be very enlightening and a genuine wake up call. The writer isn't going to sugar-coat his issues about the horrendous food that most of us consume, particularly the over utilization of highly processed foods. Dr. Mercola is very straight up about his objective in publishing this book. He wishes to "inform you of the specifics that are typically ignored from the often altered help stories you hear or read about in the media.

The writer refers to his spectacular qualifications, as a person certified to talk on this topic. And he's right,"I have treated more than 25,000 patients as a physician", vigilantly analyzed a huge assortment of nutritionary techniques, written two New York Times bestselling books, and developed the most frequented natural health websites in the world." Dr Mercola points out that his site is viewed at by 25 million people every month. Okay, okay, I am astounded!

Dr Mercola commenced his career as a physician using conventional methods, but he began to recognize the usefulness of natural treatments to treat patients. "I was thrilled to see so many people getting much better using diet and lifestyle modifications" he says. I was so persuaded by these results that I made the decision to change my practice to natural medicine "What happened next was not so good financially for the doctor,he lost three fourths of all his patients.

To me, the author elevates his believability when it's clear that he
gave up a great deal of money for a thing he believes in. That doesn't demonstrate the doctor is correct, but it does prove he puts his money where his mouth is.

Read the book get your life back///

Gillian Flynn have you read all 3 of her books Sharp Objects, Dark Places, and Gone Girl.

Gillian Schieber Flynn is an American writer, film writer, comic book writer and previous television critic for Entertainment Weekly.Gillian Flynn was born in Kansas City, Missouri to two community-college professors—her mother taught reading; her father, film. As a result she spent an excessive amount of her childhood nosing through books and watching movies.

Flynn’s 2006 very first novel, the fictional mystery Sharp Objects, was an Edgar Award finalist and the winner of two of Britain’s Dagger Awards—the first book ever to win multiple Daggers in one year. Movie rights have been sold.

Flynn’s second novel, the 2009 New York Times bestseller Dark Places, was a New Yorker Reviewers’ Favorite, Weekend TODAY Top Summer Read, Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2009, and Chicago Tribune Favorite Fiction choice. Movie rights have been sold, with Gilles Paquet-Brenner (Sarah’s Key) to direct.

Flynn’s third novel, GONE GIRL has become a household name now especially after the release of the hit movie in Oct. Probley one of the best written and best thrillers written in the last 5 years Gone girl  has gone on to enormous success making Flynn one of the top writer's of this decade.

Sharp Objects
Clean from a short stay at a psych hospital, reporter Camille Preaker confronts a scary assignment: she must go back to her small home town to cover the murders of two preteen girls. For years, Camille has barely talked to her neurotic, hypochondriac mom or to the half-sister she scarcely knows a stunning thirteen-year-old with an spooky grip on the town. Now, set up in her old bedroom in her family's Victorian mansion, Camille discovers herself identifying with the youthful victims,a bit too powerfully. Dogged by her own demons, she must uncover the psychological dilemma of her own past if she wants to get the story,and make it through this homecoming.

You will surely be drawn into this dark mystery/thriller
I adore a great psychological thriller with disturbingly defective characters and this book did not let you down. The main character is a lady battling to make a life for herself, fleeing her childhood and really, fleeing her mom when she is directed back to her home town as an investigative reporter. She is assigned to report on the grotesque murders of two pre-teen girls, but in the procedure she gets put right back in the middle of her screwed up family characteristics, her small town's social design, and a potential romance..

 Dark Places

Libby Day was seven when her mom and two sisters were killed in “The Satan Sacrifice of Kinnakee, Kansas.” She survived—and notoriously testified that her fifteen-year-old brother, Ben, was the killer. Twenty-five years afterwards, the Kill Club—a secret society preoccupied with notorious crimes,locates Libby and squeezes her for specifics. They hope to uncover proof that may free Ben. Libby wants to turn a profit off her tragic history. She’ll reconcile with the players from that night and report her findings to the club,for a fee. As Libby’s research takes her from shabby Missouri strip clubs to deserted Oklahoma tourist towns, the incomprehensible truth comes forth, and Libby finds herself right back where she started,on the run from a killer.

Really loved this book. Very dark and with more twists than a cork screw. I think part of its attraction to me is the environment. Being from Missouri I could identify some of the places in the book. It's great to see a book written by a woman who comprehends women and has no fear in putting them in gritty settings

Gone Girl.


On a warm summer morning in North Carthage, Missouri, it is Nick and Amy Dunne’s fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick’s clever and beautiful wife disappears. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn’t doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams about the slope and shape of his wife’s head, but passages from Amy's diary reveal the alpha-girl perfectionist could have put anyone dangerously on edge. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media—as well as Amy’s fiercely doting parents—the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he’s definitely bitter—but is he really a killer? 

I read all three, I started with Sharp Objects, and I loved the writing. Usually like 90% of the time, I figure the ending in the first third of the book. Not with this author, after reading the first book, she had me sucked in and I had to read the other two as soon and as fast as I could. Not only has the author have a way with words, she can twist the plot 360 degrees, and you are shaking your head with your mouth open wondering how did I miss that! A few chapters down the road she twists it around again, and by the ending of the book, you are still shaking your head with the mouth wide open, going back and rereading chapters. Nope I didn't miss something, she just is that GOOD.
