She’s seen too much. Now nowhere is safe
By Lisa Gardner
A New York Times bestselling author returns with the latest installment in the addictive Frankie Elkin series. In this story, Frankie travels to Tucson, Arizona, to find a missing Afghan refugee whose friend suspects she is in grave danger. Frankie must act before it is too late.
Recent Afghan refugee and young mother Sabera Ahmadi was last seen exiting her place of work three weeks ago. The local police have refused to open a case, while her older and domineering husband shows little concern.
Leaving readers breathless until the final page
At the insistence of Sabera’s closest friend, missing persons expert Frankie Elkin agrees to take up the search. She begins just in time for a video of Sabera to surface. The footage shows Sabera walking away from the scene of a brutal double murder. Kiss Her Goodbye unfolds with this shocking revelation, setting the pace for a relentless investigation.
Frankie quickly notices that much more hides beneath the surface of the Ahmadi family. Isaad, the father, is a brilliant mathematician. Sabera is a gifted linguist. Their little girl, Zahra, possesses an uncanny ability to remember anything she sees. Given everything the girl has endured in her short life, this gift may also be a terrible curse.
When Isaad disappears under mysterious circumstances, danger escalates further. An attempt on Zahra’s life forces Frankie to confront the urgency of her mission. She realizes she must crack the code of this family’s horrific past. Someone is coming for the Ahmadis, and violence is clearly an option. Kiss Her Goodbye captures the high stakes as Frankie races against time.
When everything is on the line, how far would you go to protect the ones you love? Frankie is about to find out. Kiss Her Goodbye asks this haunting question and leaves readers breathless until the final page.
Timely and completely gripping.
