Wicked Game

A must read for everyone!

This is an exciting book with continuous suspence. One of Lisa Jackson's best efforts.

Un-put-down-able

A real page turner that kept me reading well into the night. Wicked games was incredible. It kept me guessing right up till the end.

A must read

Lisa Jackson and Nancy Bush have done it again! I couldn't wait to go out and get this book! It had me hooked from the first page. I wanted to hurry up and read it so I could get to Wicked Lies!!! You must read this book if you like suspense and mystery!

Waste of time

The story moved slowly. Very repetitive. Pushed my way through the book, only to have tons of unanswered questions.

Undecided.

The is the second book I've read by Ms. Jackson. I read Malice first and it was fair. I was disappointed in this book because of the end. She left way too many unanswered questions regarding other characters, so, I'm assuming there will be a sequel. If she doesn't do a sequel to this one, it will be the last time I read a book by her. I'm not really into her writing style. This one moved along a bit better than Malice, which was EXTREMELY slow. Good character development. I probably won't read anything else by her except the sequel to Wicked Game, if she does one.

BORING

I love all of Lisa Jacksons book-have enjoyed them all except for this one...The storyline started out great, pulled you into a great storyline, building the suspense, and then the storyline takes a drastic turn out to left field and WHAM it goes downhill from there. The last thirty pgs went really wacky esp when you find out who did it-completely unbelievable! I wont ruin the book just know that it is not Lisa Jacksons best work. The end of the books shows a excerpt from her new(er) book Malice and looks like a big DUD too :( if you still want to read, check it out at the library

Not that good

I got this book because it got good reviews but I am having a hard time getting into it. I am not at all emotionally invested in the characters and the plot is weak in my opinion. Still going to finish it since I paid for it. It jusr won't end fast enough for me.

exciting paranormal romantic suspense thriller

In 1989 sixteen year old Jessie Brentwood informs her friends at St. Elizabeth she is leaving town. When she vanishes everyone assumes she left town except twenty-five year old police detective Sam ¿Mac McNally who thinks one of her ¿Preppy Pricks¿ pals killed her. He puts the pressure on them, but the case goes cold with the obsessed cop earning a nasty reputation for crossing the line with the teens. Meanwhile Becca Sutcliff, who suffers visions, and Jessica¿s boyfriend Hudson Walker begin seeing one another until he goes off to college and fails to stay in contact.

In the present kids telling ghost stories near the statue of the Madonna in the St. Elizabeth maze find a hand sticking out of the ground. Mac is assigned the lead but warned not to go over the top. When the body is exhumed from its gravesite, they find the skeletal remains of a four-five month old fetus next to the woman.

Hudson¿s sister, Valley Star reporter Renee Trudeau brings the old gang together to discuss the case. Hudson is elated to see widow Becca whose husband dumped her for another woman before dying from a heart attack. Becca knows she loves Hudson as much as she did as a teen, but distrusts him. As Becca begins to have her spells that she had not had since Jessica vanished, someone begins to murder the gang in what seems like freak accidents, but Becca knows better. She believes the evil killer is back to finish what he started.

This exciting paranormal romantic suspense thriller is filled with plenty of action once the St. Elizabeth ensemble meets for the first time in two decades. Even with a psychic element and with people nearby including the obsessed cop, the tale is reminiscent of Christie¿s And Then There Were None. Though somewhat illogical re current day motive, the story line is tense and gripping as one by one the killer is murdering Jessica¿s old gang. Fans of both authors will enjoy the sibling collaboration as Becca and the audience know he is coming for her.

A "wicked" book that keeps you Guessing

I typically love the novels by Lisa Jackson, they have suspence, mystery, and great characterization. "Wicked Game" had its fair share of suspence and mystery, however, it lacked in character development, and the ending was too open ended. I will admit though, that I was happy to see that the killer wasn't someone we could guess at.

Not a bad book, but I wish it gave more information at the end. I like to know what happens rather than wonder when I have finished reading. If you are a fan of Lisa Jackson, don't hesitate to pick up this book. You may like it more than I did - A would give it a C+

highly recommend this book

i really enjoyed reading this book. i couldnt put it down. full of suspense and keeps you wanting to find out more about the characters
am willing to read more books this author has written.

Very Wicked and Awesome Read!

This book I COULD NOT put down once I started reading. The characters and theme went hand in hand and was very compelling. First experience with a book by Nancy Bush but have been long time reader of Lisa Jackson. These two are definitely related and very talented writers. Will now be adding NB to my list of authors to watch out for.

A Very Good Read!

I love this writing pair of Lisa Jackson and Nancy Bush. They weave a very fun plot line with a touch of paranormal. It's fun and I can't wait to read the second one: Wicked Lies!

Great Story

I couldn't put this book down. I is a wonderful read. If you are going to read this book I recommend that you read Most Likely to Die by Lisa Jackson, Beverly Barton, and Wendy Corsi Staub first.
