Featuring Lisa Jackson, #1 New York Times Best-selling Author, discussing her new latest novel LOST SOULS, her most harrowing novel yet… as a young woman’s determined hunt for a serial killer draws her into a twisted psychopath’s unspeakable crimes…LOST SOULS reunites Jackson with Detective Reuben Montoya and returns to the familiar backdrop of New Orleans. Jackson also re-introduces readers to now twenty-seven-year-old Kristi Bentz, a woman who has nearly died twice at the hands of a serial killer, and lived to tell about it. Her dad—and Montoya’s partner—New Orleans detective, Rick Bentz wants Kristi to stay out of danger, but if anything, Kristi’s experiences have made her even more fascinated by the mind of a killer, and she’s determined to become a true crime writer. Kristi seems to find her perfect subject after discovering that four girls have disappeared at All Saints College in less than two years. All four were “lost souls,” troubled, vulnerable girls with no one to care about them, or come looking if they disappeared. The police think they’re runaways, but Kristi senses there’s something that links them, so Kristi decides to enroll, following their same steps. There are whispers of a dark cult on campus whose members wear vials of blood around their necks and meet in secret chambers, rituals to which only the elite have access. To find the truth, Kristi will need to become part of the cult’s inner circle, learn their secrets, and play the part of lost soul without losing herself in the process. And the deeper she goes the more Kristi begins to wonder if she is hunter or the prey.Brought to you by TriCom Podcast, dedicated to putting Authors In YourPocket (tm)...http://www.authorsinyourpocket.com
