Lisa Jamison: Book 3
Publication Date: April 11, 2023
Journalist Lisa Jamison wants to blow off some steam after an argument with her boyfriend, so she heads to her friend Ricky’s kickboxing studio for an early morning workout. She expects to find Ricky alone, setting up for his first class of the day, but someone was there before Lisa, uninvited. Ricky is dead, shot only moments before she arrived, and now Lisa is a suspect in his murder. Lisa wants two things: to clear her name and seek justice for Ricky. But the deeper she digs, the more the danger mounts. Can she find Ricky’s killer before the killer eliminates the last obstacle, silencing Lisa for good?
Reporter Lisa Jamison arrives early at the kickboxing studio only to find the owner taking his last breath. Determined to search for clues, Jamison faces off against an unknown murderer who will do whatever it takes to stop her.
Author Lori Duffy Foster delivers the latest installment in this standalone series with No Time to Breathe. Characters from earlier books are featured, which helps with the continuity of the storyline.
As a former reporter, I appreciate Jamison’s investigative abilities. She sets herself apart as a serious journalist looking to make a difference. Her tenacious approach to solving the case is evident in the multi-faceted approach she uses in looking at all angles.
Her relationships with Patrick and Dorothy serve up some additional fodder for drama as Jamison wrestles with the idea of Patrick’s former FBI partner showing up seemingly ready to rekindle old flames.
With fast-paced action as the investigation focuses on Jamison’s involvement, No Time to Breathe keeps readers on the edge until the end.
