\"\"<\/a>It’s December! That means it’s time for our final 2020 spotlight author. This month it’s: Lisa Gardner!<\/p>\n

Lisa Gardner is quite popular, writing crime novels and psychological thrillers. These are the kind of books that keep you up past your bedtime because you can’t go to sleep until you know what happened! Some of her popular series include ones about\u00a0Boston homicide detective D.D. Warren<\/strong>, FBI Profilier<\/strong> Pierce Quincy and Tess Leoni<\/strong>, a private detective in New England, as well as several stand alone titles.<\/p>\n

There are quite a few authors that are similar to Gardner so if you have already read all of her titles, or would like to try some else, here are a few suggestions.<\/p>\n

You Don’t Want to Know<\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Lisa Jackson<\/p>\n

Cop Town<\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Karin Slaughter<\/p>\n

Suspect<\/strong> <\/em><\/a>by Robert Crais<\/p>\n

Broken Promise<\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Linwood Barclay<\/p>\n

Roadside Crosses<\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Jeffrey Deaver<\/p>\n

Lie to Me<\/strong><\/em><\/a> by JT Ellison<\/p>\n

There are lots more titles and authors to choose from. Be sure to stop by one of our locations for more ideas on display.<\/p>\n

I am planning on reading\u00a0 Before She Disappeared<\/strong><\/em><\/a> by Gardner. It’s the first in a relatively new series by Gardner that follows the cases of a woman who searched for missing persons.<\/p>\n

Now it’s your turn – what will you be reading this month?<\/p>\n
