What would you do if the man of your dreams hides the soul of a killer?

Jim Beckett was everything she'd ever dreamed of...But two years after Tess married the decorated cop and bore his child, she helped put him behind bars for savagely murdering ten women. Even locked up in a maximum security prison, he vowed he would come after her and make her pay. Now the cunning killer has escaped--and the most dangerous game of all begins....

After a lifetime of fear, Tess will do something she's never done before. She's going to learn to protect her daughter and fight back, with the help of a burned-out ex-marine. As the largest manhunt four states have ever seen mobilizes to catch Beckett, the clock winds down to the terrifying reunion between husband and wife. And Tess knows that this time, her only choices are to kill--or be killed.


Lisa Gardner sold her first novel when she was 20 years old. In 1993 she graduated magna cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania with a degree in international relations. She lives in Rhode Island, where she is at work on her next novel of suspense.

  • Absolutely love the plot. Fast paced, astonishing and gripping. Love the rich character of the villain - Jim Abeckett.

  • I read this book many years ago, this is one of the two Lisa Gardner books I've read and definitely my favorite. I could reread this easily, I love the raw chemistry, the storyline, and the fear you feel for the main character along with the pain.

  • Such a good book...

    What a sick and twisted charater in this book. I couldn't put it down and yet I had to stop because it was kind of scary....LOL....I really like it and will read more from this author very soon.
