FBI Special Agent Kimberly Quincy and Sergeant Detective DD Warren have built a task force to follow the digital bread crumbs left behind by deceased serial kidnapper Jacob Ness. And when a disturbing piece of evidence comes to light, they decide to bring in Flora Dane who has personal experience of being imprisoned by Ness.
Their investigations take them to a small town deep in the hills of Georgia where something seems to be deeply wrong.
What at first seems like a Gothic eeriness soon hardens into something much more sinister as they discover that for all the evil Jacob committed while alive, his worst secret is still to be revealed.
Quincy and DD must summon their considerable skills and experience to crack the most disturbing case of their careers - and Flora must face her own past directly in the hope of saving others.

Lisa Gardner always wraps the characters so vividly in your mind that you are connected to many of them, not just one. Add a bunch of great women (that we already love) to a gut-wrenching story about a young girl who sees her mother murdered when she is young and has yet to talk fifteen years later, toss in a great guy or two, a big bad monster and you have the all-night thriller you’ve been looking for.
A negative, not negative, is that you want to meet this girl and give her a few hugs; a place to belong and be loved. I fell in love with Girl and was so sad when the story ended and I wouldn’t get to spend any more time with this book.
This is a FIVE-STAR thrill ride though so be aware of that before you start reading. Many of Lisa Gardner’s books grab ahold of you and make you want to eat up every word, pause so it isn’t over yet, then start reading again because you just can’t stop, BUT WHEN YOU SEE ME adds a lot more hair-raising angst that will grab you by the throat.
Many if the book club early reader participants who submitted their recommendation to our site made it a point to add this book as a MUST READ ASAP… and I agree!
Thanks Dutton and NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
