Everything. TO BE Twenty years later, Detective Lucas Dalton is investigating the discovery of human remains at what used to be Camp Horseshoe. Lucas worked there that infamous summer when two girls … that infamous summer when two girls went missing, rumored to have been kidnapped—or worse. Now seven former female counselors are coming back to the small Oregon town. Each one knows something about that night. Each promised not to tell.
FORGIVEN
Among them is Bernadette Warden, the woman Lucas has never forgotten. As they reunite, a new horror unfolds. First comes a simple, terrifying message: YOU WILL PAY. Then, the murders begin—as a web of lust, greed, and betrayal is untangled to reveal a killer waiting to take the perfect revenge . . .

You will pay by Lisa Jackson was a good read, It kept you guessing until the very end. Throwing so many red herrings that it was impossible to decipher the good from the bad.
Everyone at camp Horseshoe has something to hide, Secrets muddy the water obscuring the real culprits behind a web of lies and half truths.
All and sundry at the camp are guilty of something and my brain was working overtime trying to process just what.
This story is skillfully written and the author has managed to blend the past and present brilliantly.
You will Pay flows so seamlessly that you don’t notice the leaps from the past till real-time.
The past part of the story takes place twenty years earlier when all our young adults are councillors at Camp horseshoe.
During this time Two of the councillors go missing Elle & Monica but no bodies are ever found.
There is also the added mystery of Dustin who also works at the camp but just up and vanishes after cashing his paycheck and as if that’s not enough there’s also the small matter of an escaped convict on the loose.
The camp is closed, everyone leaves to continue with their lives, The case goes cold.
fast-forward twenty years and skeletal remains are discovered on the beach.
Lucas once a camp counsellor and son to the owner of the camp is now a deputy.
As everyone is recalled for questioning this time around secrets are not staying buried.
I was playing Miss Marple till the final chapter and some things I’d kind of had a hunch, others I was like Oh My Giddy Aunt, Well I never.
All in all, this was an enthralling easy read that ticked all my boxes and then some.
You will Pay gets a big thumbs up from me.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley who supplied me with an advanced reader copy.
All opinions are my own.

This book was good, but not enough to hold me in suspense. I kept falling asleep, not a good sign. Way more detailed sex than I like, but the story line and mystery were good.
so much suspense considering that every chapter is from another characters point of view. I LOVE IT.
While this book was not her best, it was a good read. Lots of characters, so could be a bit confusing. But I did enjoy reading it.
Lisa Jackson always delivers a great thriller.
Absolutely LOVED this one! Lisa Jackson never lets me down.
I loved you will pay. Couldn’t put it down excellent book by an outstanding author that has never let me down with her books
I found this book an unsatisfying read, mainly because there was no one to root for. I wasn’t cheering for any of the characters. In fact most were annoying. The multiple characters resulted in many aspects of the story being repeated, and not in enough detail to make them intriguing. The killers, although mentioned in the beginning, remained hidden until the end when the book had to end. I think incorporating the killer all the way through would have built more suspense.
A breathtaking novel that is sure to keep you guessing until the last page is swiped! It has been a while since my last read from this author, but after a few pages in I was quickly reminded why I enjoy her books so much… her trademark twists and turns took over and I was instantly addicted, and taken on one heck of a literary escape!! Highly recommend this one, it’s sure to have your spine tingling from the very first chapter!!
Love Lisa Jackson
Very good, keeps you guessing all the way!
I love this book. Lisa Jackson is one of my favorite author .I have read almost all book and I have to say the mystery books are my favorite.
Her books so intense it hard to put them down
I have read most of Lisa Jackson’s books. She is one of my favorite authors. I like this one because it goes back in time for each character so you get to know their individual stories.
Love her books!
