Kiss Her Goodbye by Lisa Gardner brings back Frankie Elkin for her most breath-taking adventure yet. This brand new thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author is sure to captivate readers.

Frankie Elkin usually prefers her cases cold. However, she finds herself in the broiling streets of Tucson, Arizona, where an Afghan refugee has been missing for three weeks.

The woman she is looking for, Sabera Ahmadi, is a young mother, haunted by war and scarred by the past. The police and Sabera's husband appear indifferent to her disappearance. But Frankie understands trauma; she knows it can fuel or destroy you.

When she notices the distress in Sabera's daughter's eyes, Frankie makes a decision she soon regretsβ€”to find Sabera.

A few days later, Frankie sees Sabera on camera walking away from the scene of a brutal double murder, realising Sabera might not be the victim she assumed her to be.

To solve the mystery of Sabera's present, Frankie must revisit her past and uncover the dark secret Sabera is still hiding. A secret so dangerous it might kill them both...

About the Author

Lisa Gardner started her writing career aged seventeen. Having caught her hair on fire while working in food service, crafting a novel seemed a safer bet. A mere ten years later she became an overnight success with the publication of her first thriller, The Perfect Husband. Now an internationally bestselling author and winner of the International Thriller Writers Award for best suspense novel, Lisa lives in the mountains of New Hampshire with her family. When not glued to her computer, she can be found hiking the mountains with her dogs and/or researching new and interesting ways to get away with murder.
