From above her comes the muffled sound of cruel laughter, followed by the hard splatter of dirt. Pure terror takes over as she realizes she's being buried alive, and her last breath is a scream that no one but a sadistic killer will hear. To journalist Nikki Gillette, this disturbing story is a ticket out of small - town Savannah and on to the big time. She's already given the killer a nickname - The Grave Robber - and she's spending every minute dogging tough cop Pierce Reed's investigation, trailing him through Savannah's deep thickets and crumbling cemeteries...even though she's starting to wonder about the secrets he's keeping. Another body is found...and another. Each gruesome discovery unnerves Nikki a little more...there's something familiar about it, something she should know. Now, as a serial killer pulls her ever deeper into his sick game, she has no idea how close she's getting to the truth - or how deadly it will be. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Unbearable HeroineWhile the book is well-written and keeps you guessing, I couldn't give this one any more stars because the character of Nikki was so unlikeable that it was impossible to care about her or do anything other than hope she'd be buried alive. Reed wasn't much better, but at least he was tolerable when he was with Morrisette. LJ has written better...don't feel bad skipping this one. Rating:  - Great book,.Great book. I did not want to put it down. It moves fast. I can see why she is a best seller. The murder is really a monster. This one gets up under you. A must read. Rating: - A strong writer who pulls you into the storyThis book, received second hand in a box from a Freecycle member, was my introduction to Lisa Jackson. I love stumbling authors I've never read, especially if we hit it off, their books and me. I found this novel highly readable. The friction between fellow reporters, coupled with the animosity between law enforcement and members of the press, is a natural here. Her characters are real, as is the dialog. The premise of a serial killer burying his victims alive, buddied ...

Nikki Gillette, bless her shallow little heart, was not very good at recognizing danger until it came and bit her. The police seemed very competent in this story, not just one or two mavericks who were on the job, but the force as a whole seemed to be actually doing a good job investigating. Reed was a fine character and I ended up just loving Nikki despite her character flaws. These were great characters in a ...
