Sergeant Detective D. D. Warren confronts the strangest case of her career in this exclusive eBook short story by the #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner.
The Guy Who Died Twice is a short story Ebook by Lisa Gardner. I have read several books by Lisa Gardner; the Detective D.D. Warren series and most recently The Next Accident from the Quincy & Rainie series. Lisa Gardner like another one of my favorite authors, Laura Griffin, is expert at blending the action and mystery of crime solving detective work and romance. The female protagonists are often as smart and game as the men and not the shrinking violets who need to be saved as are often an element of romantic fiction. So of course I jumped at the chance to read Lisa's newest effort. So excited I was about this Ebook that I dived right in and didn't know it was a short story. You can imagine my surprise when things started to wrap up fairly quickly :)
The Guy Who Died Twice is told like a classic murder mystery. A strange case, the events take place in a house where all of the suspects are gathered: the deceased man's wife, Doctor and servants. The story is told through Detective D.D. Warren's view as she recounts the case to her husband, Alex (a crime scene analyst) as they are relaxing at home after a hard day's work.
Entertaining and intriguing, Lisa Gardner once again provides a great cast of characters and a mystery that will keep you guessing throughout. Even though it's a short story the characters are well developed and the story moves along at a comfortable pace. The Guy Who Died Twice is a nice layover until Lisa Gardner's next novel.
