Book Description:
The Crimes are Unthinkable - A serial killer is turning the Big Easy into his personal playground. The victims are killed in pairs - no connection, no apparent motive, no real clues. It's a very sick game, and it's only just begun. The Fear Is Real - Abby Chastain left New Orleans long ago and for good reason. Now she's back where she feels watched, as if the devil himself is scraping a fingernail along her spine.

It doesn't help that Detective Reuben Montoya is convinced she's somehow the key to unlocking these horrible crimes - a mystery that has something to do with Our Lady of Virtues Mental Hospital, a decaying old asylum where unspeakable crimes were once committed, and a human predator may still wait.

The Truth is Deadly - As more bodies are found in gruesome, staged scenarios, Montoya and Abby are in a desperate race to stop a killer whose terrifying crimes are bringing them ever nearer to a shocking revelation. For the past is never completely gone. Its sins must be avenged. And a twisted psychopath is getting close enough to make them....SHIVER

My first Lisa jackson book and I would definitely read more. Fast and easy read but a plot line that was not ordinary, which I appreciated. Lots of romance, which I don't usually enjoy, but this was central to the story.

Shiver literally had me shivering! Lisa Jackson continues to keep me coming back for more.

This book was great! Abby Chastain feels she is following in her mother's footsteps, only that's not a good thing. Her mother was put in an asylum at a young age, the same age that Abby is now. Recently divorced, Abby's ex husband, a radio dj, blasts her on the airwaves and now he's dead. Now, all signs point to Abby. Only Det. Montoya believes that Abby is a target and not the killer. When murders start happening in pairs, all evidence leads Abby to the very asylum that held her mother. This is a fantastic story, it held my attention, and I can't wait to read another Montoya novel!

I have read many books by Lisa Jackson and I think she is amazing. Every book I read by her I finish within a couple of days. Makes you never want to put it down! Can't wait till the next one!
