Synopsis

“With action-packed twists and turns and a pace that doesn’t let up until the thrilling conclusion, Her Last Day is a brilliant start to a gripping new series from T.R. Ragan.” ―Robert Bryndza, #1 international bestselling author of The Girl in the Ice

Ten years ago, PI Jessie Cole and reporter Ben Morrison each suffered a tragedy that changed their lives―and now these two strangers are about to share a nightmare.

For Jessie, who makes her living finding missing persons, no case has consumed her more than the disappearance of her younger sister, Sophie. But left alone to raise Sophie’s daughter, she realizes that solving the case has become an unhealthy obsession.

For Ben, a horrific car accident resulted in scars both physical and emotional―and amnesia that has made his life a mystery. But curiously, out of his shattered memories, there’s one person he recognizes without a doubt: Jessie’s sister. He just doesn’t know why. Yet.

But Sophie isn’t the only phantom drawing Jessie and Ben together. An elusive serial murderer known as the Heartless Killer has reemerged from the shadows. His next move will cut even deeper into Jessie’s worst fears. And for Ben, what happens this time is going to be unforgettable.

Reviews

Sacramento, California, PI Jessie Cole, the heroine of this exciting, intricately plotted series launch from Ragan (Furious and two other crime novels featuring Faith McCann), was drawn to detective work after her sister, Sophie, disappeared one night a decade earlier. Crime reporter Ben Morrison, who has suffered for years from amnesia caused by a car accident, approaches Jessie to do a series of articles focusing on the search for the still-missing Sophie. By focusing on Sophie’s disappearance anew, Jessie hopes to uncover something overlooked in the original investigation. Meanwhile, Jessie has full responsibility for her fourteen-year-old niece; is facing charges for shooting a stalker she was following on one of her cases; and has to deal with her fear of rejection when a former lover, police detective Colin Grayson, reappears. Colin, she discovers, is pursuing the Heartless Killer, a serial murderer who in the past six years has claimed at least 13 victims. As old wounds are reopened for both Ben and Jessie, the tense plot builds to a startling and satisfying resolution. (starred review)
