Who was the real killer? Romain Fornier lost his reason for living when his daughter was kidnapped and murdered. He used a cop's gun to mete out his own justice and spent the next few years in prison. Once he was freed, he returned to his Cajun roots in small-town Louisiana. But now he learns that he might have killed the wrong man. Jasmine Stratford, a psychological profiler, is convinced his daughter's killer is still alive--and that she and Romain have something in common. She believes the same man kidnapped her sister, Kimberly, sixteen years ago. What happens next? Jasmine is determined to track him down when she receives an anonymous package, postmarked New Orleans--the bracelet she gave Kimberly for her eighth birthday. She approaches Romain because she knows he can help her... if he chooses. But searching for the man who irrevocably changed both their lives means they have to rise to a killer's challenge: stop me.… (more)

Another great thriller. It was a really good page turner and kept me interested and guessing the whole time. I thought the characters were great and I am glad this is a trilogy (sort of), I cant wait to read the other two! ( )

'Stop Me' is the second book in the Last Stand trilogy. This book focuses on Jasmine Stratford and her year long search for her missing sister. The search leads her to Romain Fornier, who has his own demons. The story moves along at a good pace and the two main characters have good chemistry. The twist at the end is hard to predict. ( )

Excellent! I had no idea who the bad guy was until the very end. I could not have been more surprised. ( )

Book two in the last stand trilogy focuses on Jasmine, a woman who is determined to find the sister that was kidnapped 16 years earlier. After receiving the bracelet her sister was wearing when she disappeared in the mail, Jaz heads to New Orleans, where the package was post marked from. She finds similar traits in the kidnapping and murder of Romains daughter Adele. After her murderer is let go, Romain takes matters into his own hands and kills the guy on the courthouse steps - or does he? Jaz and Romain team up to figure out what happened to the ones the loved. They find themselves in the middle of something bigger than either of them could have imagined. Did the wrong man die for Adele's murder? Is Jaz's sister Kimberly dead or alive? While Jaz and Romain work together to solve these mysteries - if they should happen to fall in love along the way - well, that's not so bad is it? ( )

Epigraph
Battle not with monsters lest ye become a monster and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes into you.
--Friedrich Nietzsche
Dedication
To Lieutenant James Hendrickson (Mr. Incredible) of the Sacramento Police Department, who took me to work, gave me the grand tour and generously answered every crime-related question I could think of. It's comforting to know there are Super Heroes like you out there on the front lines.
First words
New Orleans
Four years ago...


The man who'd murdered Romain Fornier's ten-year-old daughter didn't look like a killer.
