Resumen del Editor

Lying on the ground, the girl’s prom dress, the color of champagne, shimmers in the dying light. A corsage of wilting pink sweetheart roses decorates her wrist. She is perfectly still, like a delicate china doll, trapped forever in a sleep from which she will never wake....

When a call comes in about a young girl found dead at a high school prom—her life drained away from a fatal stab wound—Detective Josie Quinn drops everything to attend the scene. Taking in the girl’s neatly braided hair, Josie feels a flicker of recognition. But no one comes forward to identify this innocent child, murdered on what should have been the happiest night of her life.

Trawling missing-persons files, Josie realizes where she has seen the girl before. Gemma Farmer disappeared a few months ago, shattering her family. But why would her body appear now, on her 16th birthday? Josie’s only clue is the five neat little cuts on Gemma’s pale arm. Days later, another missing girl shows up, tucked neatly into her bed on the morning of her birthday, her favorite teddy beside her, her skin as cold as ice—and the autopsy reveals scars on her arm matching Gemma’s.

Her head spinning, Josie’s fears the marks are a serial killer’s twisted way of counting his victims. How many other innocent lives have already been lost, and how many more could follow? The case takes a terrifying turn when a local girl goes missing just days before she turns 16.

With the clock ticking, Josie turns the town upside down in search of answers. But when her own chief comes forward with the missing piece of a devastating puzzle spanning decades, will it be enough to get inside the mind of the most unexpected and elusive killer she has ever encountered, or will another precious life be taken?

An absolutely heart-stopping crime thriller from an Amazon, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal best-selling author. You will be up all night biting your nails and listening! Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Robert Dugoni, and Rachel Caine.

Exciting! Suspenseful!

Watch Her Disappear was so suspenseful that it was hard to stop reading so I could sleep! Took less than 2 days to read/listen!

another great one

I love how Josie is growing from her pain, last book was a tear jerker. This one had me tearing up when all the action happened. If you been following the series then you will learn more about the chief. He opens up to Josie.

Great story line

I enjoy Lisa Regan’s books and this one had great plot twists. The narrator also does a great job, except she should check pronunciation. The word ‘femoral’ is pronounced FEM-uh-ral. It is distracting. Sometimes, in other books, her pronunciation hasn’t always agreed with mine but I understood that they were variations of pronunciation from the NE of the U. S. This is not the case with femoral.

Grate book.

This was really a great book. The narrator was excellent.
It kept me on the edge of my chair. All kinds of surprise for each character. One of the star characters really got a giant surprise at the end.

This was enthralling

Secrets and more secrets and her storytelling is getting more complex as are the characters!!!

oh my

Write more Josie Quinn books please!!

loved loved loved these books keep me riveted. excellent

It's not what you think

(As posted in Goodreads)
What a wild ride! I have read five or six of the other "Detective Josie Quinn" books, and they're all riveting!
Of those I've read, this plot was the most intriguing and involved. The murderers are over a very long time, and there motive and execution both different and interesting.
I loved the book, and the fact that it's "out of order" in terms of my reading does not negatively affect it. Excellent addition!

As always, good story, but narration.

I like Lisa Regan and like this story. If you’re a fan of the series, you’ll like this book. Good characters continue and we learn more about one.

My one issue, and it’s a pet peeve of mine, is the word mispronunciation. The first time the narrator said femoral, I cringed. She pronounced it fem-OR-al instead of FEM-er-al (latter is correct). I thought, despite my cringe, maybe her pronunciation was acceptable, acceptable pronunciations do change over time. Or perhaps that’s the way the British pronounce it. I checked in several dictionaries, American English & British and nope, accent is on the first syllable in all I checked. If it was just said once or twice, I probably wouldn’t have brought it up. But, this is a word used frequently in this story, as a cut to the femoral artery is the killer’s MO. It drove me nuts. Don’t folks listen to these recordings before they’re put out? It’s so annoying when it takes the listener out of the story.

Writing was exceptional!

Love these characters and their stories. It's great to listen to the story, it really was intense! Love Lisa Regan books!

Mispronunciation

The story was great. The narrator mispronouncing femoral every time got on my nerves. Why didn’t anyone catch this before the book was published.
