Touch & Go

Genre: Mystery, Thriller & Suspense
Book Type: Hardcover
reviewed on + 46 more book reviews


I've now read almost every book by Lisa Gardner. She generally writes fast-paced thrillers that are low on romance. She sometimes tackles tough, sensitive subjects, and dark themes, but unlike some thriller authors, she never lets her stories devolve into torture porn. She knows just how much to show the reader and when to let the more disturbing details be left off the page. Like any prolific author, some of her books are better than others, but Touch & Go is definitely one of her best. It's very hard to put down once you begin. I figured out the ending earlier than I usually do, but that didn't take away from my enjoyment. And I'm definitely hoping we see Radar again in the future.

One of the main characters (Tessa Leoni) is first introduced in Love You More, but it won't matter too much if you don't read that one first.
