Staff Pick of the Week is \u201cSay Goodbye\u201d by Lisa Gardner. From the book jacket:<\/p>\n

Come into my parlor . . .<\/em><\/p>\n

For Kimberly Quincy, FBI Special Agent, it all starts with a pregnant hooker. The story Delilah Rose tells Kimberly about her johns is too horrifying to be true\u2014but prostitutes are disappearing, one by one, with no explanation, and no one but Kimberly seems to care.<\/em><\/p>\n

Said the spider to the fly . . .<\/em><\/p>\n

As a member of the Evidence Response Team, dead hookers aren\u2019t exactly Kimberly\u2019s specialty. The young agent is five months pregnant\u2014she has other things to worry about than an alleged lunatic who uses spiders to do his dirty work. But Kimberly\u2019s own mother and sister were victims of a serial killer. And now, without any bodies and with precious few clues, it\u2019s all too clear that a serial killer has found the key to the perfect murder . . . or Kimberly is chasing a crime that never happened.<\/em><\/p>\n

Kimberly\u2019s caught in a web more lethal than any spider\u2019s, and the more she fights for answers, the more tightly she\u2019s trapped. What she doesn\u2019t know is that she\u2019s close\u2014too close\u2014to a psychopath who makes women\u2019 s nightmares come alive, and if he has his twisted way, it won\u2019t be long before it\u2019 s time for Kimberly to . . .<\/em><\/p>\n
