“The Escape” by Lisa Harris


The Escape (US Marshals Book #1) by Lisa Harris

WOW!! What a great start to a new series! US Marshal Madison was a great, strong female character who works with co-worker Jonas while on a manhunt for an escaped killer. I enjoyed the thrilling ride from beginning to end as they worked together night and day to figure out what the fugitive was thinking and where he was going. I felt like I was watching an action movie!

There is also a side story of the death of Madison’s police officer husband and whether it was a random or intentional shooting. This brought an additional element of suspense to the story line.

Both characters were very likeable and I found this to be one of my favorite suspense books so far this month. I can not wait for book 2 to be released next year so I can find out more about Madison and what she’s going to do next with her life, job, possible romantic interest in Jonas…

This will definitely be a book I keep on my bookshelf to read again and again. I highly recommend this clean suspense book-you won’t want to stop reading it once you start!

I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

About the Book:
US Marshals Madison James and Jonas Quinn are thrust into a high-profile case when they are called on to transport two prisoners across the country on a private plane. But when the plane experiences engine trouble en route from the Pacific Northwest to Colorado, the pilots crash-land the aircraft deep in the heart of the sprawling Salmon-Challis National Forest.

When Madison and Jonas regain consciousness, they find both pilots and one prisoner dead–and one fugitive on the run. They’ll have to negotiate the rugged and remote backcountry through Idaho, Wyoming, and Colorado while tracking a murderer who is desperate to disappear–and will do anything to stop them.

This high-octane game of cat-and-mouse from bestselling and award-winning author Lisa Harris will have your heart pumping as you try to catch a fugitive with nothing to lose.
