Lisa Gardner is a #1 New York Times bestselling crime novelist. A self-described research junkie, she has parlayed her interest in police procedure and twisted minds into a streak of twenty-plus thrillers. Her latest, BEFORE SHE DISAPPEARED, is available January 19, 2021.

Meet Frankie Elkin, an everyday, average person who specializes in finding missing people. When the locals have given up, when the media has never bothered to care, Frankie takes on the challenge. Her latest mission has brought her to Mattapan, Boston, to find a missing Haitian teen. Eleven months later, Angelique Badeau's disappearance remains a mystery. What happened to the quiet, studious teen? Frankie learns quickly the dangers of asking too many questions, but that won ...more

Is there gonna be another DD Warren book in 2021 or future? I just can't get enough of reading these books.

I am almost completely done with reading your entire series of books. I cannot get enough of them. I know there is a new DD Warren book coming in 2019, any chance we can get another Quicny and Rainie book?! I miss reading their story and Kimberley's as well. Thanks!

Personally, I think Kimberly and D.D. have some of the best scenes working together. Two fierce investigators who turn to mush when talking about their kids? What's not to love? There will definitely be more Kimberly in 2020 as well. And yes, I'm wondering if Quincy and Rainie can't show up to at least assist. It's all a movable feast at this point, as I'm not a writer who looks that far ahead. But I'm also a sucker for my characters and if there's an opportunity to work someone into a story, I'm definitely going to take it. To recap, NEVER TELL is a D.D., Flora, Kimberly novel. I can already say the 2020 will start there and grow accordingly.

Now, all of you, are missing the obvious: What new character is in NEVER TELL who's worth following? Because there is one. And for love nor money, can I figure him out. A character who stumps the novelist. See, plenty of good reading ahead.(less)

New Book!

I have a new book for you! I'm very excited to announce the January 19, 2021, publication of my latest thriller, BEFORE SHE DISAPPEARED. For my loyal readers, I'm sure you're already wondering, does it feature D.D.? Flora? Tessa Leoni? The FBI Profilers? In fact . . . none of the above!

Nope. I've written my first standalone novel in twenty years. Meet Frankie Elkin, an everyday, average person who Read more of this blog post »

Had the privilege of reading this book early. Love the Peter Ash series! And the Runaway in question in this novel…. Look out. Exactly my kind of heroine! Much murder and mayhem ensue.

I loved this psychological thriller. From the first page, I felt the main character, Marti, was speaking directly to me. Her heartbreak, rage and determination was so compelling. And great twists and turns. Had me to the very end.
