Loading... Live to Tell (2010)by Lisa Gardner
  
  ) Enid007 | Apr 11, 2024 |  D.D. Warren is a relatable, no B.S. character of author Lisa Gardner. In her earlier novel (2011), Live to Tell, we find D.D. Wrestling with the woo-woo of the supernatural highway as she tries to piece together a common thread that has left two polar opposite families and one psych ward child dead in a span of three days. Detective Warren wades through the intricate life of Danielle, the only survivor of a family murder from 25-years prior using her own type of cop woo-woo to uncover the answers to the current murders and help Danielle piece together memories of her past. Live to Tell is a good read with likable characters. As with anything Lisa Gardner, this is a quick, easy read that you will find yourself rushing through the last few pages to figure out the whodunnit while wishing the book would never end. Way to go Lisa! ( ) LyndaWolters1 | Apr 3, 2024 | BooksInMirror | Feb 19, 2024 |  ) tackyj | Aug 3, 2023 |  This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers. momtrimble | Jun 24, 2023 |
This is the third Gardner book I've read and I love how she builds the story and keeps you wanting to turn the page until the books ends too quickly. I liked the story that she created for this book with the different character, D.D. Warren, the detective that has occurred in three other books, Danielle, a workaholic, and Victoria, and struggling single mother who has one very scary child. Gardner takes these three characters on one very scary and somewhat unsettling ride as she pulls you into the story I really thought this was a fantastic book and my favorite Gardner so far Belongs to SeriesD.D.
