Reviews

When a Massachusetts State Police trooper shoots and kills her husband, Boston Homicide Det. D.D. Warren sets about figuring out what parts of the trooper's story are true, and, most urgently, where the trooper's missing six-year-old daughter might be. The story is told from two perspectives-the detective's and the trooper's. Kirsten Potter reads the narrative for Warren with a strong, bold voice, and Katie MacNichol creates a nicely contrasting youthful, unsure tone for Trooper Leoni, buckling under family and career pressures. Both performers take on other characters with aplomb, male and female alike, and MacNichol's efforts as a young child are especially successful. Gardner's intriguing crime story takes unexpected turns, and the pace, the suspense, and the mystery make for compelling listening. A Bantam hardcover. (Mar.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC.

"Leads the reader on a breathless search until the final pages."--The Star-Ledger "Having already produced a dozen successful thrillers, Gardner proves herself not only a very clever storyteller here, capable of pulling together a complicated series of events, but also a writer able to invest her characters (particularly her female ones) with emotional substance. Compelling and unexpected, this tale of mystery and maternal devotion shows Gardner at her very best."--Booklist (starred review) "Gardner's characters are fully drawn . . . and her taut storytelling and dizzying plot will appeal to fans of Harlan Coben."--Library Journal (starred review) "Gardner hits an impressive new high with her latest taut thriller. . . . Unbelievably gripping and clever, you won't want to put it down until the final page!"--RT Book Reviews "Gripping . . . jaw-dropping."--Publishers Weekly

Lisa Gardner . . . no one owns this corner of the genre the way she does--and Love You More might be her best ever."--Lee Child "Tessa Leoni is a dedicated single mom when she is swept away by a man who turns out to be the wrong guy.

Gardner does her homework and loads this thriller chockfull of authentic details, giving readers a front seat ride that will leave you gasping."--Alex Kava "Crisp prose, crackling plots, layered characters. A stickler for detail. Lisa Gardner is the best female thriller writer working today."--Steve Berry "Lisa Gardner is an amazing writer. Her characters are multi-dimensional and believable, and they tell the kinds of stories that grip you right from the first page."--Karin Slaughter "I loved that this book had not just one but two amazing, compelling, complex, and incredibly strong kick-ass female characters."--Suzanne Brockmann "Lisa Gardner's books come with a built-in set of hands. They reach up out of the pages, grab you by the lapels, and hold you until you've read to the final, suspense-filled sentence. And Love You More is no exception."--Linwood Barclay "It has the chills and thrills to excite, and the heart to draw you in."--Sandra Brown
