That being said, I would recommend reading FIND HER first, because then you can get to know Flora better and her story.
Warren series this can absolutely be read as a standalone. I was completely sucked into this one from the beginning and found myself flipping the pages nonstop. They have a great chemistry and are just opposite enough of each other that it makes their partnership work without too much head-butting. The relationship between Warren and Dane is fantastic. While their ideas of justice differ, they must work through the clues that were left behind in order to figure out if Roxy is a victim or their suspect. Did she manage to successfully escape or was she taken? Warren isn't the only one looking for the girl, Flora Dane, the survivor from FIND HER, is also looking for justice. A family of five was brutally and savagely murdered - all but one family member were accounted for. It just reinforces that I need to get more of her books.ĭetective D.D. In true form, Gardner brings the read on a crazy ride with suspense at every turn. Warren is back with Flora Dane to seek justice in a gruesome murder case. I read FIND HER by Lisa Gardner last year and I absolutely loved it! Well, Detective D.D. I highly recommend any police procedural/thriller lover to read Lisa Gardner - you'll be happy that you did. I also guessed correctly on the ending midway through the book ). While this is not as dark in the macabre, bloody sense as some of her other books, it definitely still did leave a mark. Highly entertaining, I flew through these pages. This novel touches on survival, revenge, mistakes, forgiveness, family and how far one would go to stop the abusive cycle that continually haunts all the characters. This felt just as much Flora's story as it did D.D.'s. The survivor story line with Flora was also a welcome addition. I think my favorite part, however, was reading Roxy's essays as we get to see exactly what happened in her life and how she became mother to her siblings when their mother could not. We get multiple perspectives in this one - mainly through D.D. Does it help to do so? Of course, but it's not a necessity so do not let that hinder you from picking any of these books up out of order. There's some references to the past, but it doesn't leave you confused or needing to read the past books.
One thing I love about Gardner's series book is that they all seem to read well as a standalone. Detective Warren is back and this time so is Flora, the survivor from FIND ME. Last year I had the privilege to read Lisa Gardner's FIND ME (you can see my review HERE).
