Praise for Lisa Jackson’s Alvarez & Pescoli Series
“Longtime fans of the series should find this installment satisfying, as Jackson continues to develop plot points and themes established in previous tomes, detailing how her two heroines navigate the often treacherous waters of their jobs and personal lives. Newcomers should also enjoy it, as it presents a satisfying, well-written, well-executed standalone mystery, which displays a general good humor even as it ratchets up the tension with each successive chapter.” —Mystery Scene on Expecting to Die
“Exciting thriller . . . Jackson skillfully interweaves the suspense, deft characterizations and a well-crafted plot.” —Publishers Weekly on Born to Die
“A very twisted tale!” —Suspense Magazine on Ready to Die
"The ins and outs keep you guessing." —The Pilot on Expecting to Die
“Jackson is an expert at plot complications and they abound in Expecting to Die.” —The Kitsap Sun
“The latest in Lisa Jackson’s appealing series involving Montana detectives Regan Pescoli and Selena Alvarez, and it wastes no time gripping readers . . . a real page-turner, suspenseful and genuinely scary in places, and if you exclude the possibility of slaughters by the mythic Big Foot, it should keep readers guessing. A Grade- A thriller! And no, you certainly don’t have to believe in Big Foot!” —PCA/ACA Mystery & Detective Fiction Reading List on Expecting to Die
“You can’t go wrong with a thriller from this author.” —The Pilot on Afraid to Die

About the Author
More than a thriller, this pulse-pumping saga offers a captivating glimpse into a treacherous underworld filled with grit and suspense. Fans of crime literature should be prepared for an exhilarating ride as they buckle up and ride shotgun in this gripping page turner.
Though battle-wounded and scarred, Raphael has survived the criminal underworld in Benin with the help of the US government. Together with his wife, Essie, and their adoptive son, Kaion, they enjoy a seemingly picture-perfect life. Their harmony is shattered when CIA agent Rhys unexpectedly shows up at their doorstep.
No aspect of life comes without a cost, and Raphael soon realizes that even his comfortable existence has a price. In a move to bring down Abaku, the mastermind behind US financial scams and the same man responsible for the international wire fraud that nearly cost Raphael his life, the US government opts to cash in their favor, endangering the lives of those Raphael cherishes the most.
To expose the elusive enemy, Raphael must delve deeper than he ever imagined, putting his family at risk and questioning loyalties. Betrayal lurks around every corner as he is coerced into joining an elite government agency, and the stakes are higher than ever before. As the casualties mount in this deadly game of cat and mouse, Raphael must discern friend from foe in order to survive and save his family.
