I was keen to read this as it sounded so good but I didn’t realise it was the third in the series and I hadn’t read any of these before. However, I didn’t need to worry, a few pages in and I was well and truly hooked.

What to say next, well the descriptions of the island were amazing. Sometimes I actually felt I was with the characters by the ocean watching the stingrays. And those crabs, my god, I would be terrified!!!

This had a really action packed storyline with some really strong characters in. In fact, it would make for a good movie! I liked the story from start to finish and I thought the ending was very satisfying. I’m looking forward to reading more about Frankie.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Frankie looks for missing people. She's often successful though usually not in bringing them home alive. This is the third in a series but it can easily be read as a standalone. This time the request comes from an unusual source: a serial killer on death row. Kaylee claims her sister is being held captive by a billionaire. Frankie's mission is to save her.

The beginning of the book is excellent. The description of the remote Hawaiian atoll is excellent and you get a real sense of the remoteness of the place. I've never had any urge to visit a place like this and now even less so, The crabs would definitely be a turnoff for me.

I'm afraid though that on the whole the book didn't appeal. There were plot twists galore but they were quite unbelievable and the story as a whole seemed highly unlikely. Add into that at least one very grisly murder and I was quite put off. The book started off as a 5 but ended up a 2, so I've balanced it out at 3.5. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

This is my first book by this author. While it was an interesting story, it did wander off the plot a few times. I didn’t really gel with any of the characters and the ending seemed a bit far fetched.
Also don’t like the bad language.
3.5 stars from me

Wow! So much action I didn't find an ideal moment to pause reading so I'm afraid to say I read on until the end. The characters and setting were described well so you could imagine them. There were also no limits on the amount of people injured or killed. I didn't expect what happened towards the end (to murderer etc). A great read in my opinion

Ahh brilliantly unusual and completely and refreshingly different from anything I’ve read before. Some really great elements, from stunning and unusual backdrop on remote Hawaiian islands to quite possibly the bloodiest and intense prologue I’ve read in a long while! This book definitely captured my interest on a multitude of levels. I loved the psychological elements of what made such a prolific serial killer and her steely strong persona and her complex family backgrounds. The other characters in the book are brilliantly and individually built up so that they all feel as important as they are. Some quirky twists and turns and intense edge of the seat, fast action and peril. Loved it, very narrowly misses a five star rating from me, which I scarcely ever give so high praise.

Tropical Island, blue crabs, hit people, money laundering, incest, What more can you want from a book?

Inspired writing, but in the middle it did tend to wander a little, more into the fauna of the Island than the thriller it was.

Thank you Netgalley for letting me read this book.

I can't praise this book enough. In this brilliantly captivating plot Gardner is not afraid to tackle taboo subjects like prejudice, child abuse, and incest to name but a few of the topics, which are covered here.
Frankie, our protagonist travels around searching for lost people, those who society doesn’t care about uniting them with their families one way or another. She is trying to save them as she was unable to save Paul her ex husband. The plot begins with Frankie being somewhat forced into searching for the sister of a serial killer, Keahi, who is awaiting her execution for the murder of 18 men. Her search takes her to a beautiful island in Hawaii. The vivid description really conjures up a sense of paradise and serenity. Nothing however is, as it seems. As the group consisting of archaeologists, architects and a handful of basic staff attempt to turn the island into an eco-luxury resort. Danger is not far away in the form of a seventeen year old who is hell bent on revenge and greed.
The book packs a punch and if it weren’t that my Kindle required recharging I would not have put it down.
Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read this brilliant book.

I just reviewed Still See You Everywhere by Lisa Gardner. #StillSeeYouEverywhere #NetGalley

This book starts off really well but unfortunately the “wheels fall off” after the first couple of chapters..

As soon as Frankie hits Hawaii, the story becomes more of a Natural History lesson than a thriller so it tires easily. I found myself skipping through big chucks of narration about flowers, crabs, spiders to TRY to get back to the plot but the book continues to go off at “tangents” that do nothing to move the story along.

Thank you to the author, publishers Century and NetGalley UK for access to this as an advance reader’s ebook. This is an honest and voluntary review.

Frankie Elkin’s drive to find the forgotten missing has taken her to many places. But the building site for a billionaire’s paradise atoll brings it’s own unique challenges. Isolation, cannibal crabs, and the sister of a charismatic serial killer.

A third return for Frankie Elkin was always going to be a welcome one. Frankie’s off the grid living creates lots of interesting plot opportunities. Bringing her into contact with communities who by choice or circumstance are overlooked or unknown to the majority of the world.

It’s just as well I was already familiar with Frankie though. As it meant it took a while to realise that the initial set-up of a serial killer on death row asking for help to find the sister she’s lost had fallen way into the background for most of the first half of the book. Like to the extent that I began to wonder if it was going to be more than a starting point, which worried me as I liked the dynamic Frankie had in her meeting with the Beautiful Butcher. The brutal (and beautiful) young serial killer who believed her abusive ex had kidnapped her baby sister.

The plotting does come together of course, although I’m still not sure if it fully delivered in that initial promise. The final resolution to the situation felt both inevitable and rushed. Which was slightly anti-climactic after some really effective tension building.

It’s Lisa Gardner so of course it’s tense and readable with engaging characters. But, I think there was room for more time with the main threat of the plot.

This is the latest in Lisa Gardner's Frankie Elkin series, she is an expert at finding the invisible, the missing persons that the world deems as not important. Still reeling and traumatised from her previous Wyoming case, Frankie is taking the Greyhound bus to a prison, at the request from lawyer Victoria Tennow, to what is to become her most surprising client, a death row prisoner. The Beautiful Butcher, Kaylee Pierson, is soon to be executed. Pierson, a product of an abusive home, lured 18 men from bars and killed them, unrepentent, she has never denied it and has not sought to appeal her death sentence. It is clear she would happily kill again but she wants Frankie to locate and help rescue her lost younger sister, Lealani, apparently abducted in Hawaii at the age of 5 by her ex, tech billionaire Sanders MacManus.

MacManus is currently in the process of building an exclusive eco-resort on a remote tropical atoll, Pomaiki, utilising a small group of skilled experts and development professionals, an interdependent team, operating under project manager, Vaughan. Employment is secured for Frankie, and she flies into a situation and location she has no experience of, facing the challenges of the intense humidity, sun, and being constantly drenched by the heavy rainstorms. Paradise is mesmerisingly beautiful, the teeming birds, the wildlife, not to mention the joys of Bert and Ernie, the manta rays, plus there are the terrifying coconut crabs. However, there are real serpents too, the most dangerous being of the human variety. In a narrative where little is as it appears, there are dead bodies, twists and turns galore, as Frankie finds herself tested to her limits, will she live to tell the tale?

You will need to suspend your disbelief to enjoy this latest Frankie outing, she is not at her strongest here, but I found myself gripped, turning the pages as fast as possible, as the tension and suspense reach sky high levels. What I liked were a number of the supporting cast, such as Charlie, Ann and Trudy. My highlights include the top notch atmospheric sense of location, there are rich and informative descriptions of the scenic island that make you feel as if you are right there. There is fun, banter and humour that helps lighten the heavy feel of menace that lingers throughout the novel. I cannot wait to see where Frankie goes next! Many thanks to the publisher for an ARC.

"Still See You Everywhere" by Lisa Gardener's is full of suspense, intrigue, mystery and action.

It's the 3rd instalment in a series about a freelance missing person finder - Frankie Elkin of no fixed abode - who is asked by a woman on America's Death Row to help find her sister, whom she believes was kidnapped by her former lover. Frankie travels undercover to a very remote atoll off Hawaii and becomes part of the local crew, who are setting the groundwork for a luxury resort. There are some mysterious characters and odd behaviours going on, but naturally, the reader doesn't get the full picture until almost the end.

I had not read the first two books but this didn't matter as plenty of Frankie's background was provided. The descriptions of the location, people, wildlife (goodness, those coconut crabs!) and weather were very vivid.

My 4 stars are because the plot contained a few unreasonable coincidences and lucky escapes, but this is fiction after all. Sit back and enjoy!

Loved this book.
Couldn't put it down and read it at lightning speed. It had me gripped from the start.
Fantastic!

I was unsure about reading this book once I realised it was part of a series but I needed have worried because it read well on its own. It was very fast-paced and exciting and it didn’t take me long to get into it and want to find out what was going to happen. Very enjoyable.

As a person who specialises in finding missing people, Frankie Elkin has seen a lot of strange things. But her current case really is in a different league. After all, how often is it that you find yourself working on behalf of a serial killer?

But Frankie is now on a dangerous assignment to a tropical destination, where a millionaire is allegedly holding his ex-girlfriend in captivity on a remote Hawaiian Island. Or at least, that is what her brother the serial killer claims...

So Frankie must operate undercover in order to find Lani. In this hostile environment, not only does she have to avoid discovery, she also needs to deal with the the people around her - as well as the island fauna - neither of which are particularly welcoming.

Now, the question is, can Frankie find this woman and get them both off the island alive?

This is a fast-paced and suspenseful adventure that will keep the reader's attention fully engaged. Buckle in for a wild ride, with a few surprises! An enjoyable read. It gets 3.5 stars.

An unputdownable read! I couldn’t put this book down. I really enjoyed this book and meeting the characters.
Stuck on a remote island where not everyone is who you think they are and natural dangers are everywhere. I enjoyed the ending and felt that it was fitting for the story.

I find myself torn about this book. On one hand, it's incredibly entertaining and had me hooked from start to finish. Despite its hefty four-hundred-plus pages, I breezed through it in just a couple of sittings. However, there were moments where the plot felt a bit too convenient and implausible, with some rather glaring coincidences. But what really made me roll my eyes was the cliché use of the "no phones allowed" or "no cell service" trope in thrillers. In my over twenty years of owning a cell phone, I've never encountered such situations, making it feel like a lazy narrative device.

Despite these gripes, I have to admit that the book kept me guessing until the end. With a plethora of characters, there were plenty of red herrings and potential suspects, leading to an engaging game of cat and mouse. Even though I found most of the characters unlikeable, including those being stalked, I appreciated the inclusion of a male victim of stalking.

What truly sets this book apart is its unique premise, which immediately draws the reader in. The pacing is relentless, with non-stop action throughout, culminating in an intense, if somewhat unbelievable, finale. It's easy to see why it has garnered high ratings and widespread appeal. Despite its occasional leaps of logic and the over-the-top ending, the journey to get there is undeniably entertaining.

I highly recommend reading the author's note at the end. It's incredibly raw and personal, adding an extra layer of depth to the narrative.

Still See You Everywhere, following freelance missing persons investigator Frankie Elkin, is the third in the Frankie series but would work well as a standalone (in fact, one of my slight complaints about the book is that for those of us who have read the previous ones, there was slightly too much repetition of Frankie's backstory).

This book finds her sent to a remote, privately owned island off the coast of Hawai'i at the behest of a convicted serial killer, who asks Frankie to locate her younger sister - believed to have gone missing years ago, there's now reason to believe that she's the ward - or trafficking victim? - of the billionaire owner of said island.

Similarly to the previous book in the series, there is a focus in Still See You Everywhere on survival in the wild, which works well at ramping up the tension (although at the same time I do find myself missing the urban Boston setting of Gardner's previous books - can we please have a new Dee Dee book soon???) and the twist was cleverly played out.

Frankie Elkin is back!!! This time she’s gone to a remote island searching for the missing sister of a female serial killer.

I love how Lisa Gardener writes. She builds a story really well start to finish, keeping you guessing the whole time. I was delighted that we didn’t spend too much time in Frankie’s past this time. I really enjoy Frankie. She evokes something in me.

The characters were really well written in this story, I was creeped out by the crabs, spiders etc at times but that’s just me. Overall a great read that I really enjoyed.

I can’t wait until I see Frankie again!

Oh boy, I did not like this book one bit. Sorry to all the reviewers who have given it 5 stars, did we read the same book? I requested this title because I quite enjoyed the previous Frankie book, One Step too Far. This one however, to me was just a far fetched convoluted tale.
Frankie is asked by a prisoner on death row to look for her sister, Lani, kidnapped as a child by her nasty ex.
Frankie is sent under cover by Kaylees (death row prisoner…she murdered 18 men) attorney to a remote Hawaiian island to look for Lani. So far so good, but then the story seemed to just flag. For someone looking for a child who might be with her guardian under duress, I thought some finess might be called for. Nope Frankie goes around telling everyone who will listen what she’s up to and who she thinks is to blame, this includes people already on the island whom she also suspects. Even the ending with its many twists couldn’t save this book for me.

This was just sheer perfection in book form! I'm a massive fan of the author so went into expecting nothing but the best, and it still completely surpassed my expectations! The writing so well plotted out and it all just flows so effortlessly. The storyline wad original and the characters are just so human! They're very easy to envisage and understand their motivations and actions. There were some amazing twists and its all just so perfectly laid out to keep you needing to read just one more chapter and before you know it, it's the end!! Must read! Absolutely amazing. Can't remind highly enough
