Lost,
By
This review is from: Lost (Paperback)
Jane Garner, the wedding lady who makes custom gowns, has lived a life typical of a Long Island mother of a sixteen-year-old girl, until the day her cell phone rings and she hears the voice of her beloved daughter, Kelly, saying Mom, I need your help. Please call. The call ends in mid-sentence, and Janes life is turned upside down when her daughter disappears.
Kelly has survived childhood leukemia at nine, enduring four years of radiation and chemo, and although there has been the usual adolescent angst of late, Jane cannot conceive what could possibly have now again put her daughters life in jeopardy, but that apparently is the case. The authorities politely take the information, but appear to be of the belief that Kelly has run away with a boyfriend, of whose existence Jane has been completely unaware. Jane is given the name and number of a retired FBI agent, a Consultant, Special Cases, as it says on his business card, Randall Shane, and not knowing where else to turn, Jane enlists his aid. He is an enigmatic but imposing figure, in his forties, someone she ultimately describes as father, brother, protector, friend, my own personal superhero, all these things and more. What ensues is a suspense-filled search where their enemy is a deranged and monstrous killer. Their pursuit takes them to Miami, Florida and the Everglades, which becomes a living, breathing creature as wonderfully evoked by this author. Jane is no supergal, just a very human and believable protagonist, who, the reader is tantalizingly told, has been lying to myselflying big-timefor sixteen yearsThing about living a lie, if you do it really well, you sort of forget youre lying. And apparently Randall Shane has some secrets of his own, all of which is made known to the reader before the conclusion of this terrific, hold-your-breath novel, which is highly recommended
