Synopsis;
Recovering alcoholic Frankie Elkin spends her life doing what no one else will--searching for missing people the world has stopped looking for. A new case brings her to Mattapan, a Boston neighborhood with a rough reputation. She is searching for Angelique Badeau, a Haitian teenager who vanished from her high school months earlier. Resistance from the Boston PD and the victim's wary family tells Frankie she's on her own--and she soon learns she's asking questions someone doesn't want answered. But Frankie will stop at nothing to discover the truth, even if it means the next person to go missing could be her.
Thoughts.
I didn't realize this was a series until I looked it up, I'm going to have to read the next two!
I couldn't put this book down, it was so good. Very detailed while going though the missing person case.

Synopsis;
Timothy O’Day knew the woods. Yet when he disappeared on the first night of a bachelor party camping trip with his best friends in the world, he didn’t leave a trace. What he did leave behind were two heartbroken parents, a crew of guilt-ridden groomsmen, and a pile of clues that don’t add up.
Frankie Elkin doesn’t know the woods, but she knows how to find people. So when she reads that Timothy’s father is organizing one last search, she heads to Wyoming. Despite the rescue team’s reluctance, she joins them. But as they hike into the mountains, it becomes clear that there’s something dangerous at work in the woods . . . or someone who is willing to do anything to stop them from going any farther.
Running out of time and up against the worst man and nature have to offer, Frankie and the search party will discover what evil awaits those who go one step too far . . .
Thoughts;
I couldn't put this down, I feel like I read it in 3 days! These books are so very well written.
I'm generally decent at figuring out the “who done it” but this writer is so good that she steers you in the wrong direction all while having the answer right in front of you!
Still See you Everywhere
*Frankie Elkin #3
Author: Lisa Gardner
Synopsis;
Frankie
Elkin is an expert at finding the missing persons that the rest of
the world has forgotten, but even she couldn’t have anticipated
this latest request—to locate the long-lost sister of a female
serial killer facing execution in three weeks’ time.
She has called herself “death,” but people called her the devil.
The case was sensational. Kaylee Pierson had confessed from the very beginning, waived all appeals. Despite the media’s chronicling of her tragic circumstances—the childhood spent with a violent father—no one could find sympathy for “the Beautiful Butcher” who had led eighteen men home from bars before viciously slitting their throats.
Now,
with only twenty-one days left to live, Pierson has finally received
a lead on the whereabouts of the sister who was kidnapped over a
decade ago, and she needs Frankie’s help to find her. The Beautiful
Butcher’s offer:
When
was the last time your search ended with finding the living?
Unable to resist the chance for a rescue, Frankie takes on Pierson’s request. Twelve years ago, five-year-old Leilani went missing in Hawaii. The main suspect? Pierson’s tech mogul ex-boyfriend, Sanders MacManus. Now, on a remote island in the middle of the Pacific—the site of MacManus’s latest vanity project—fresh evidence has appeared. In order to learn the truth and possibly save a young woman’s life, Frankie must go undercover at the isolated base camp. Her challenge: A dozen strangers. Countless dangerous secrets. Zero means of calling for help. And then the storm rolls in…
Thoughts.
This was really good! I had a hard time putting it down
The
twists that kept coming fit in perfectly with the story line and the
ending was perfect!
