Find Her Alive

Detective Josie Quinn #8 / 25
by Lisa Regan
Find Her Alive (Detective Josie Quinn #8) by Lisa Regan
Unrated

Josie treads gently, careful not to disturb the pile of perfect white bones laid out in the grass by her feet. Her voice is little more than a whisper. “No! Not my sister…”

Detective Josie Quinn hasn’t heard from her sister since Trinity stormed out of the house in the heat of an argument three weeks ago. So, when human remains are found at the remote hunting cabin where Trinity was last seen, Josie can only assume the worst.

Gathering her team, Josie feels a surge of relief when the dental records match a different body – that of a missing single mother from a neighboring town. But now Josie’s is not the only broken family desperate for answers.

Dusting the crime scene for prints, a name smudged into the side of a nearby car is the first in a trail of clues Trinity left for Josie. In need of a big story to save her journalism career, it seems Josie’s sister was attempting to make contact with a dangerous serial killer known for creating sculptures with his victim’s bones. And Trinity won’t stop until she’s found him, even if it means becoming his next masterpiece…

Josie is certain there’s a critical clue in the ivory hair comb delivered to Trinity just days before she went missing. But as more bones surface, each set more likely to be Trinity’s than the last, time is running out to find her alive. Can Josie’s team trust her instincts in a case that is so deeply personal? Can she find her sister without putting other innocent lives in danger?

An unputdownable crime thriller from an Amazon, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author that will have you sleeping with the light on. This gripping rollercoaster ride is perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Robert Dugoni and Rachel Caine. Prepare to be totally hooked!

With the release of Vanishing Girls in 2018, Regan introduced readers to Detective Josie Quinn, a tough yet deeply vulnerable character whose personal and professional worlds collide in spine-tingling ways. This debut marked the beginning of what would become a bestselling series, with the Detective Josie Quinn novels quickly finding a dedicated audience.

She expertly blends psychological thrillers with crime procedurals, creating narratives that are never far from the edge of the reader's seat. Each book in the series delves into heavy themes—grief, loss, justice, and redemption—without shying away from the darker aspects of humanity. The result is a series that isn't just about solving crimes; it's about understanding the people who are affected by them, making the stakes personal and heart-wrenching.

What sets Regan apart in the crowded world of thrillers is her ability to craft stories that resonate emotionally, while still keeping the plot tight, thrilling, and full of twists. She brings readers along on a journey that’s as much about the psychological unraveling as it is about catching the culprit.

Regan’s books have earned accolades and a loyal following worldwide, yet she remains humble, finding her greatest joy in hearing from readers who connect with her work on a personal level. Whether you’re new to her world or have been following Josie Quinn from the start, Lisa Regan’s writing promises to keep you hooked from the first chapter to the last.

Detective Josie Quinn

In the heart of Lisa Regan's Detective Josie Quinn series, there lies a woman who’s as relentless as she is empathetic, a detective whose fight for justice is driven not just by duty, but by a personal quest for redemption. Josie Quinn isn’t your typical detective. With a past full of secrets and scars, she’s determined to solve cases that not only test her intellect but challenge her emotional limits. Each case she faces pulls her deeper into a world of danger and deception, but it’s her vulnerability, her humanity, that makes her more than just a crime solver—she’s a beacon of hope for those who’ve been overlooked, discarded, or lost.

Set against the backdrop of small-town America, the series invites readers into a tense, unpredictable world where every murder, disappearance, and mystery carries its own chilling weight. Through each gripping novel, Josie Quinn confronts not just criminals, but her own demons, making for an intimate and deeply emotional ride. With every twist and turn, the line between right and wrong becomes harder to distinguish, but Josie’s determination to uncover the truth remains unwavering.

What makes this series stand out is its ability to blend heart-pounding suspense with profound psychological depth. The mysteries are compelling, but it’s the characters—flawed, real, and often struggling with their own battles—that anchor the story. Each installment in the Detective Josie Quinn series is more than just a crime thriller; it's a journey of self-discovery, healing, and the pursuit of justice against all odds.

As Josie unravels complex cases that stretch her abilities and force her to confront her darkest fears, readers are pulled into a series of tightly-woven mysteries that never fail to surprise.
