Lisa Gardner is the master of the psychological thriller…The world of the FBI, the terror of abduction and victim advocates blend into this tense…thriller.
Associated Press


You'll read Find Her for its adrenaline-charged plot. You'll remember it for its insights into trauma and forgiveness.
Oprah.com


The line between mysteries and thrillers and so-called literary fiction has always been a thin one, but contemporary writers like Lisa Gardner make that sort of arbitrary distinction seem especially foolish…. Find Her...is a taut, brilliantly constructed look at the same sort of horrific situation that powered Emma Donoghue’s Room.

Gardner is known for creating complex, fascinating characters...This is an incredible story
Romance Times Book Reviews


When it comes to author Lisa Gardner, the tales she writes are always extreme gems in the literary world, and this is no exception.
Suspense Magazine


[C]ompelling.... [T]he reader is treated to fascinating insights into the psychology of sadistic sexual predators, trauma bonding, and the effects violent crime have on victims and loved ones.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review.) Gardner doesn't disappoint. Longtime fans as well as those new to the series (there is no need to have read the other books in the series to enjoy this one) will delight in this suspenseful offering. —Cynthia Price, Francis Marion Univ. Lib., Florence, SC
Library Journal


Gardner alternates between Warren's investigation into Flora's disappearance and Flora's present-day hell..., but the implausibility of the sheer number of kidnappings, among other things, strains credulity. A gritty, complicated heroine like Flora Dane deserves a better plot than this needlessly complicated story.
