Fine Her/Lisa Gardner/402 pages

 Find Her (A D.D. Warren and Flora Dane Novel)     Find Her is the 8th book in a series about Boston detective DD Warren.  This story finds DD recovering from injuries sustained in her previous case that seriously injured her shoulder making it difficult to hold a gun properly so she is on restricted duty--but still in the thick of the investigation when the call comes in that Flora Dane (a survivor of a 15 month kidnapping from five years earlier) is involved in the death of a bar tender who had the misfortune to attempt to kidnap Flora.  It turns out that Flora has armed herself with training and self-defense moves and has put herself in danger on a regular basis maybe hoping to be able to get back at the low life who commit these crimes.  Then, just when you least expect it, Flora is again snatched in a horrible turn of events that is very unsettling.
     The chapters are staggered in a three way switch between the story of Flora and her current captor, Flora and her original captor and DD working through her own problems but determined to find and solve Flora's mystery.
     Even though the storyline borders on the unbelievable, this is a solid mystery/suspense novel with a different twist.  Characters are realistic and believable.  Good read.
