It was OK left me Flat October 15, 2008
This was OK, I like Lisa Jackson I wished it was BETTER. I'm glad that she's turning it into a series, but left me flat. Easy to predict about Zane and Jillian, however didn't make any sense about the serial killer that is on the loose going after Pescoli. Well we'll see how this ends, hopefully its MUCH better.
 Disenchanted October 12, 2008
I just finished "Left to Die" by Lisa Jackson and I can't even begin to describe how unfulfilled this book left me! I had a hard time picking it up since it was filled with so much fluff it became boring from the very beginning. But being a past fan of Lisa Jackson, I was sure it would pick up momentum once into the story. I was wrong! Not only did the original storyline focus on the serial killer and his victims, but the secondary plot seemed to override the first three quarters of the book and then just switches to an alternate primary plot. Anyway, to top everything off, the book doesn't end and evidently we are expected to wait until August of 2009 for the conclusion. I refuse to buy that sequel because of the huge disappointment of it's predecessor. Now that I got that out of my system, I think I'll go find a "good" book to read!
I'm SO annoyed... October 11, 2008

I can't tell you how irritated I am at having read this entire book, only to be told at the end I have to wait at LEAST a year before I find out who the serial killer is! The mystery they actually solve wasn't even the interesting one. Furthermore, I probably won't even remember the particulars of the plot in a year (hey, I have things to do). Writing a book without an ending is just so obnoxious!
In closing, if you must read this, at least wait until the sequel comes out, so you can find out how the story ends.
Very Frustrating.... October 8, 2008

This is a good story line, and very suspenseful with good plot twists. I am angry that the author didn't finish the story, instead - if I want to know what happens - I have to buy the next book when it comes out in 2009. I find this annoying, I am going to move on to another author who actually has a beginning, middle, and ending to his/her stories.
 Left to Die- A Joyfully Recommended Title October 7, 2008
He has a plan. Only he sees the beauty in it. His victims go from being terrified, to being relieved, to being shocked and terrified at the same time. The game he plays is a game that only he knows the rules for.
The police have found his first four victims, his cryptic notes, and the realization they have no knowledge of what he is trying to do or who he is. They don't even want to contemplate where he is going with his game. They do know they will not like it.
Jillian Rivers is in a car accident. Unknowingly, she is part of a killer's game. When she is freed from her car by Zane McGregor, she is not sure what to think or what to feel.
Left to Die had me from the first moment I started reading. Ms. Jackson knows how to start with a bang and keep the tension going from chapter to chapter. She makes the reader think about how safe can sometimes be not as safe as we think. I found myself so enraptured with her writing, I could not put the book down. I needed to know who the killer was, if I figured out who the killer was, and where Jillian and Zane were going to end up. And I was flipped all over mentally, and I still did not figure it out. I was so very impressed with Left to Die, I have to Joyfully Recommend it.
