I just finished Lisa Gardner's Kiss Her Goodbye and I’m still turning it over in my mind. From the very first chapter, I was pulled into Frankie Elkin’s world again. This time, she’s searching for an Afghan woman who has disappeared and left behind her young child. It’s a story full of heartbreak, courage, and resilience, and it feels incredibly timely.
What I love about Frankie is how flawed and real she is. She’s stubborn and reckless at times, but at her core she’s driven by compassion, and that makes her such a compelling character to follow. Alongside the darkness of the case, Lisa Gardner gives us those small, lighter moments that let you breathe, including Frankie’s unusual pet-sitting arrangement in a mansion full of reptiles, which made me smile in the middle of all the tension.
This book has everything I want in a thriller: pacing, emotional depth, and a character I can’t stop rooting for.
