This was an gripping mystery which kept me guessing throughout. I realized after I started it that it was the third book in the Pierce Quincy series, but I enjoyed it anyway. I liked the characters Quincy, Rainie and Kim and was rooting for them to outwit the killer. Good twists and turns as both the heroes and the villain set up obstacles against the other. Now to find the first two books, The Perfect Husband and The Third Victim!

Three-quarters of the way through the book I became riveted to every page. So tempted to speed read to find out who the murderer was -- so many possibilities but there is only one. Definitely going to read another one of her books.

This was my first Lisa Gardner book and I'm hooked!!
FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy is certain his daughter's death due to a car accident was no accident and he's determined to prove it.
From the back of the book....What do you do when a killer targets the people you love the most? When he knows how to make them vulnerable? When he knows the same about you?
This is one of those late night page-turners. Don't start it if you have to go to work the next day!!

This is a story about an FBI agent and his former girlfriend trying to stop a pyschopathic killer from continuing his murder spree on the FBI agent's family. The characters worked well together and the story has a good flow to it. It keeps you interested in reading the book because of the suspense as to who is doing the killing and why.
I recommend it highly.

Too few clues until the very end where the writer has to take up 10 pages justifying the outcome.

An accomplished psycho-killer tale. B+
I picked this book up at a garage sale and I have not read it. Hopefully someone out there would like too.
This is one of Lisa Gardner's best. FBI agent Quincy is back on the trail of another killer, one who may have been involved in his daughters death. If you like a good 'on the edge of your seat' thriller this one is for you.
Another awesome book by Lisa Gardner!

Keeps you on your toes for what comes next but also goes on at times when no necessary to. All in all a good book by a good author.
A great suspense from a good author.
Excellent book. Great plot twists and build up leading to a well thought out conclusion. Surprised me with who did it and I have read a lot of mysteries so I usually figure them out beforehand. I recommend this series and this writer.
It was A VERY GOOD suspense story. My compaqnion and I REALLY enjoyed this book!!!!!!!!!
Great series
Excellent suspense; moves along so fast you can't wait to get to the end.
Took a few pages for this book to get started but once it did - WHOA! The author kept making reference to a previous book which I had read a long time ago. I remember the characters from then, but the storyline I had forgotten so the references kind of threw me. But after that got straight,then the characters were really moving. It was kind of like "I know who did it, just go ahead and get them" and then they do a complete 180° and I was so wrong!! Very good book - recommend to crime/mystery readers and looking forward to the next one!
Very enjoyable, kept you guessing until the end!
Loved it!!!
Quincy's daughter is killed in an "accident". He will find the truth with the help of ex-cop and freind. the freind will have to stand right in the murders path to bring him out.

FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy hires Ex-cop Rainie Conner to find out who killed his daughter. Pierce and Rainie were once involved romantically and Rainie stills feels for him. A great page turner, the kind you don't want to put down.
Its an FBI Suspence Thriller.
I'm really liking this series. Great characters, and the plot has twists and turns galore....and I promise - whoever you think "dunnit", probably didn't! I can't wait to read the next book in the series.
This book was great! This is the third book of the Quincy-Rainie ongoing series and they just keep getting better. In order the books are:
"The Perfect Husband" intro of Pierce Quincy
"The Third Victim" intro of Rainie Conner
"The Next Accident" intro of Kimberly Quincy
"The Killing Hour" intro of Michael "Mac" McCormack
"Gone"
"Say Goodbye"
I have not read the last two books but the rest have all been great reads. I would suggest reading these books in proper order just to understand and appreciate the dynamics of each character and their interaction with each other. However, there is enough background info given in each book so that they don't necessarily need to be read in order.

An intriguing story of a serial killer stalking and insinuating himself into the lives of his victims, to better do them harm, and so that he can learn more about his future victims. A haunting story!
I'm reading Gardner's books all out of order but it's an interesting way to discover the characters! I love Pierce Quincy! This book is one of her best!
Another novel involving Special Agent Pierce Quincy and ex-cop, Rainie Connor. If you haven't yet been introduced to them, this is a good way to begin. If you have, you'll like this one, too.
Great suspense. Really hard to find the killer.
Truly enjoyed this book from start to finish. Couldn't put it down!
FBI agent Quincy will do anything to find out whether his daughter's death was an accident. It was hard to put this book down
I couldn't put this book down. Excellent!
Lisa Gardner is an excellent writer. She creates plots that are just amazing. A must read.
The third Quincy/Rainie and now Kimberly novel. Although you don't have to have read the first two, it helps to know the history as it comes up a lot during the course of this novel. Gardner's usual hard nosed suspense and peripheral romance is present here. The writing is intelligent, the drama real and the characters flawed yet very likeable.
Enjoyable read

very good...quite a bit of suspense...excellent storyteller.
A psychopathic killer bent on revenge targets FBI profiler Pierce Quincy. With the help of ex-cop Rainie Connor, he tries to track the killer before he/she strikes again. The climax of this book is INCREDIBLE!
another suspense laden one from Lisa Gardner
Excellent mystery!
Risking everything to learn the truth about his daughter's death, called an accident by police, FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy teams with former cop Rainie Conner on a desperate manhunt for a killer. This psychopath's most devastating weapon is an intimate knowledge of his victims' darkest fears. Another thing all the victims have in common--Quincy loved them.
Excellent read from beginning to end. Psychological terror iat its finest
Another great thiller from Lisa Gardner if you haven't read any of her books you just have to get into them! She is paired again with Special Agent Pierce Quincy as he trys to find out who killed his daughter and the only way to do that is to set herself up in the murderers way
Great book. I couldn't put it down.
couldn't guess the bad guy until the unveiling. Makes it a strong storyline! Enjoy.
I really enjoyed all of the books by this author! Very clever and keeps you hanging on!
Loved this book!! Have been rereading it in my head as I fall asleep since I finished. Great suspence.

Rainie is the only one who understands & can help Quincy. Will she be able to uncover the what really happened or will she become the "next accident" ?
Excellent installment of the Quincy/Rainie series. I didn't see the 'twist' coming. I would definitely recommend reading THIS book before you read "The Killing Hour" (Quincy/Rainie, bk 4). There are some spoilers in that later book that will somewhat dull the experience of this one. That said, I love following the Quincy/Rainie story, and this book was hard to put down.
Wow. Excellent suspense. The relationship between Laine and Quincy was just as suspenseful as the action, and what a great twist! Perfect read.
Excellent book I couldn't wait to finish it, but I didn't want it to end.
Tension is Lisa Gardner's forte and she doesn't fail in The Next Accident. The jacket blurb reveals the story line: What do you do when a killer targets the people you love the most?

As the clock ticks down to one unspeakably intimate act of vengeance, the only way Rainie can unmask this killer is to step directly un his murderous path. She will become a murder waiting to happen.

What do you do whe a killer targets the people you love the most? How do you protect them when he knows their most secet fears and hidden desires? When he knows just when to strike? And, most of all, when he knows the same about you?
These are the questions that haunt FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy. the offical police report concluded that his daughter's death was an accident. Amanda Quincy was driving drunk when her car careened out of control. Pierce knew about his daughter's problemwith alcohol. He knew about her loneliness and insecurity. And so, he is certain, did the man who killed her. Quincy is prepared to risk everything to learn the dangerous truth abut Amanda's death-and there's only one person willing to help.
Rainie Conner knows all to well the dark side of the human heart. An ex-cop haunted by her own violet past, she had once been paired professionally-and personally-with the brilliant, supremely logical FBI profiler. Quincey had helped Raine through the harrowing case that shattered her career and left her charged with first degree murder. Now it's time for Rainie to return the favor.
but this killer is like none these two hard-boiled pros have ever encoutered. this twisted psychopath has an insatiable hunger for revenge-and for fear. He isn't satisfied with taking his victim's lives. He wants to get inside their minds, strip them of every defense, render them powerless, to resist. He's already killed twice; now he's taunting Quincy and Rainie by making it no secret who his next victim will be: Quincey's only surviving daughter.
the killer's plan is chilling, brillant, and unstoppable. The cops wont help; the FBI can;t be trusted. As the clock ticks down to the final minutes of one unspeakably intimate act of vengeance, the only way Rainie can unmask this faceless killer is to step directly in his murderous path. She will become a murder waiting to happen, She will be...
the next accident.
