Shiver

Detectives Rick Bentz and Reuben Montoya race to catch a serial killer on the loose in The Big Easy in Lisa Jackson’s blockbuster New York Times and USA Today bestselling Southern Gothic thriller…

THE CRIMES ARE UNTHINKABLE
A serial killer is turning the Big Easy into his personal playground. The victims are killed in pairs—no connection, no apparent motive, no real clues. It’s a very sick game, and it’s only just begun.

THE FEAR IS REAL
Abby Chastain left New Orleans long ago and for good reason. Now she’s back where she feels watched, as if the devil himself is scraping a fingernail along her spine. It doesn’t help that Detective Reuben Montoya is convinced she’s somehow the key to unlocking these horrible crimes—a mystery that has something to do with Our Lady of Virtues Mental Hospital, a decaying old asylum where unspeakable crimes were once committed, and a human predator may still wait.

THE TRUTH IS DEADLY
As more bodies are found in gruesome, staged scenarios, Montoya and Abby are in a desperate race to stop a killer whose terrifying crimes are bringing them ever nearer to a shocking revelation. For the past is never completely gone. Its sins must be avenged. And a twisted psychopath is getting close enough to make them shiver . . .
Praise for Lisa Jackson’s New Orleans Series:
 
“Is the potential return of a series villain the end for a clever detective and his daughter, a true-crime author, in the last book in Jackson’s Rick Bentz and Reuben Montoya series?...Excitement for series fans looking to revisit Bentz and Montoya’s greatest hits while promising something new for the future.” Kirkus Reviews on The Last Sinner

“Immediate and visceral, Jackson’s latest is a superlative beach book, guaranteed to keep you glued to your folding chair until the sunlight fades. Especially gripping are Zoe and Chloe’s struggle to survive their ordeal, which takes the narrative in surprising directions...Jackson definitely knows how to keep readers riveted.” Mystery Scene on Never Die Alone
 
“Terrifying...a creepy thriller sure to please Jackson's many fans.” Publishers Weekly on Devious

“A nail-biting tale of dangerous secrets and deadly passions...should prove irresistible to fans of gritty, graphic suspense.” Booklist on Devious
 
“Filled with twists and secrets at every turn." The San Gabriel Valley Tribune on Devious
 
“Explosively riveting… a stunning success.” The Providence Journal on Devious
 
“Tense…suspenseful…shocking…will leave readers on the edge of their seats.” Booklist on Absolute Fear
 
“If you love to be scared or you crave a good heart-thumping thriller, look for this one. Shiver is going to make you shudder.” The Delaware Gazette on Shiver
