About this audiobook
New York Times bestselling author Lisa Gardner is at the top of her form as she takes us on a desperate manhunt for a killer who preys upon his victims' minds-just before he claims their lives.
What do you do when a killer targets the people you love the most? When he knows how to make them vulnerable? When he knows the same about you?
These are the questions that haunt FBI Special Agent Pierce Quincy. The police say his daughter's death was an accident. Quincy will risk everything to learn the truth-and there's only one person willing to help. Ex-cop Rainie Connor had once been paired professionally-and personally-with the brilliant FBI profiler. He helped her through the darkest days of her life.
Now it's time for Rainie to return the favor. But this killer is like none these two hard-boiled pros have ever encountered. This twisted psychopath has an insatiable hunger for revenge...and for fear. As the clock ticks down to one unspeakably intimate act of vengeance, the only way Rainie can unmask this killer is to step directly in his murderous path. She will become a murder waiting to happen. She will be...the next accident.
From the Paperback edition.

Reviews for The Next Accident
290 ratings9 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book was excellent. If you read the, Third Victim, and fell in love with Raine, then you'll go crazy in this book as well. Raine and Quicy's characters are developed and we're introduced to Quicy's daughter, Kimberly. There were plenty of twist and turns. This book will leave you hungering for more. Though I was able to figure out the villains, I was captivated at how Lisa. Gardner was going to tie it all together.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It kept me interested and awaiting the next thing to happen. It will keep your attention til the end!!!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book had me on the edge of my seat for the majority of the reading! Lisa Gardener is a great author. The narrator was great and did well with the change in characters.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Entertaining book if you don’t analyze it too closely or look for holes.That being said, I almost stopped reading it twice when the author used an incorrect expression which is inexcusable for someone whose only job is to write well. The expression, used TWICE in the book is “could care less” which any self-respecting author would know should be “couldn’t care less”. I am no grammar expert, but that is elementary level stuff. Drives me insane when regular people say it, let alone authors.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I like Lisa Gardner's novels; they are filled with interesting female characters. In this case, a newly minted private investigator teams up with a top FBI profiler (for which there is also a past personal relationship) to help investigate whether an accident was indeed an accident. A few over the top and eye-rolling moments, but overall a decently-paced thriller who-done-it.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5High-flying FBI agent Pierce Quincy's daughter has died in what everyone thinks of as a drunken car crash. However Qunciy's not so sure it was an accident and he asks a private investigator to look into the crash. Soon after Quincy's home phone number is provided to the prison populations of America and he starts receiving awful, threatening calls from death row inmates and other charmers. Things get worse for Quincy and his remaining family from that point on.
The level of suspense was pretty good in this novel and it did keep my attention. The plot held together pretty well too. However the characters never really grabbed me because they weren't memorable in any way. The most annoying thing for me though was that this is apparently the third in this series and there were so many references to events in previous novels that it was difficult to read as a standalone. I got the feeling I was expected to have read the previous books and that was very frustrating as a reader.
I'd really give this 2.5 stars. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5fairly run of the mill crime novel with formulaic characters
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I really liked this book. Everytime I thought I knew who the killer was the author threw a twist in and I wasn't sure again. Someone was killing off an FBI agents family. It had lots of suspense and mystery which I love.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was a pretty good mystery novel. I had read her more recent novels and this is one of her first novels. It has familiar characters that had always been secondary characters in the books I'd previously read by Gardiner. I really liked reading these characters in a different light. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.
