I participated in an author event at The Back Room hosted by Hank Phillipi Ryan and Karen Dionne. Authors Lyn Liao Butler, Lisa Gardner, Eliza Reid, and Francesca Serritella engaged in fascinating conversations. I wrote about my experience on my blog and it‘s loaded with book recommendations.

Another good installment in the Frankie Elkin series! Gardner always delivers with this character. I read it in 2 days (mainly because I‘m recovering from getting sick). I‘m always impressed with Gardner‘s research & a lengthy acknowledgements section goes into detail all she learned for it. It leaves me to wonder where Frankie can go next. At an author event Gardner said she‘s taking a break from Frankie, but I‘d like to see more!

This is the 4th book in the Frankie Elkin series, and I've really enjoyed every single one of them. I ended up giving this one 4 stars. Frankie Elkin is a little lost herself, but she spends her time finding missing people. This time she is looking for a missing Afghan refugee. Lisa Gardner clearly did a lot of research for this book. I love the humor and relationships built in this series. I was so happy to get an ARC of this through #Netgalley

The 4th book in the #FrankieElkinSeries harkens back quite a bit to the first with a more urban backdrop— this time Tucson— and deeply invested in the Afghani refugee community there. A friend of a missing young mother contacts Frankie to find a woman who no one seems to be looking for— not even her husband. With new reptile roommates & a fresh cast to provide assistance, this moves quickly but with a lot of background into her target‘s story.
