Suspense

The crime scene was horribly gruesome, so Boston PD detective D.D. Warren felt compelled to check it out again. She just wasn't expecting to be pushed down the stairs by someone else lurking in the shadows. D.D. is left with some memory loss from the fall, but the severe injury to her left arm and shoulder means she's unable to return to work. Weeks later, when a second murder occurs with the same grisly elements as the first, D.D. has to become involved again. Even though she can't lift her arm or load her firearm, she can help with the investigation in other ways. She just doesn't realize how closely she'll become involved with key individuals in the inquiry.

Dr. Adeline Glen is a renowned specialist who helps people deal with physical pain, even though she suffers from a rare congenital disorder and can feel no pain herself. Adeline also comes from a highly dysfunctional family; her late-mother was a mental case, her late-father was a psychopathic homicidal maniac, and her sister has been an incarcerated serial killer since the age of 14. When Adeline learns that several bizarre components of these recent murders are exactly like ones her father committed, she fears there could be some connection to her family. Why, after all these years, are similar killings taking place? And what has set this chain of events in motion?

With FEAR NOTHING, Lisa Gardner has written a meticulous thriller that will keep readers on the edge of their seats with frightening details and seriously impaired characters. As a masterful storyteller, Gardner's narrative is cleverly conceived and intricately plotted making FEAR NOTHING another winner.

SUMMARY

In #1 New York Times bestseller Lisa Gardner’s latest pulse-pounding thriller, Detective D. D. Warren must face a new fear as a serial killer terrorizes Boston.

My name is Dr. Adeline Glen. Due to a genetic condition, I can’t feel pain. I never have. I never will.

The last thing Boston Detective D. D. Warren remembers is walking the crime scene after dark. Then, a creaking floorboard, a low voice crooning in her ear. . . . She is later told she managed to discharge her weapon three times. All she knows is that she is seriously injured, unable to move her left arm, unable to return to work.

My sister is Shana Day, a notorious murderer who first killed at fourteen. Incarcerated for thirty years, she has now murdered more people while in prison than she did as a free woman.

Six weeks later, a second woman is discovered murdered in her own bed, her room containing the same calling cards from the first: a bottle of champagne and a single red rose. The only person who may have seen the killer: Detective D. D. Warren, who still can’t lift her child, load her gun, or recall a single detail from the night that may have cost her everything.

Our father was Harry Day, an infamous serial killer who buried young women beneath the floor of our home. He has been dead for forty years. Except the Rose Killer knows things about my father he shouldn’t. My sister claims she can help catch him. I think just because I can’t feel pain doesn’t mean my family can’t hurt me.

D.D. may not be back on the job, but she is back on the hunt. Because the Rose Killer isn’t just targeting lone women, he is targeting D.D. And D.D. knows there is only one way to take him down:

Fear nothing.
