Another brilliant crime thriller from Carla Kovach.
Gina and Jacob are called when a little girl is found, extremely upset as she saw her Mum being taken by a stranger and she told her to run.
Cleo is able to describe what happened but is scared the man will come back.
Soon a finger is found and Gina needs to find out if it belongs to Darcie.
Within a few days, Shannon is abducted outside her workplace and with another finger being found, Gina knows they need to find the person behind these abductions, before someone dies.
Darcie and Shannon knew each other from school so Gina speaks to their friend Anna, but it’s clear she’s not being completely honest with her.
This is a great crime thriller that I really enjoyed.
Thanks to Bookouture and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book.

This is book 15 in the DI Gina Harte series and Ive only read a few but this one definitely didn’t disappoint. It was a humdinger of a read. Once I got the opportunity to get stuck in I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. It moved at a steady pace that was both engaging as well as building the suspense factor. I fell for all the red herrings that were thrown at me and my head was in a spin. The characters are well developed and I love when I feel like I get to know them properly. I loved DI Gina Harte and Jacob especially. There are several characters and threads that play out in this well developed storyline. Really enjoyed this one.

Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review #HerLastGoodbye

This is the best of the series! The mystery is intense and full of surprises and suspense. I was stunned by the reveal. My absolute favorite part of the book is Gina's growth and the way she stands up for herself in several situations. She and these stories have come a long way from book one. I loved the ending! I feel reinvested in the series.

Somehow four-year-old Cleo must articulate to the police that, not only was her mother taken and pushed into a van, but that her mother was able to tell her to get away. Detective Gina Harte and her team begin a desperate search for Cleo’s mother, Darcie. This search quickly leads to a heated argument that had taken place betweenn Darcie and her best friend. What is more is that an assault allegation just might be behind Darcie’s disappearance.

The clues that Gina is finding also leads to secrets, thus making finding Darcie alive and well all that more difficult. But, what Gina wants more than anything, is for Cleo and Darcie to be reunited. No doubt little Cleo is terrified, but Gina proves that she is more than skilled when it comes to finding answers and she is certain that she will find Cleo’s mother.

When you pick up a <i>Gina Harte</i> book by Carla Kovach, you know that you are in for a good story. An excellent one. in fact. Gina has always proved to be more than intrepid and her strength shines through again and again. This fifteenth book in this series was just as compelling and readable as the previous titles that I have read. As always, it was very easy to be drawn into the story and to feel for the characters and their drama. Kovach keeps her readers on their toes and, in my case, really kept me guessing. I am definitely looking forward to book sixteen in this amazing series.

Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.

Thanks to Bookouture and Netgalley for this arc.. one of my favourite series DI Gina Harte

When little Cleo is found hiding in a barn, all she will will say is the bad man took her mommy, who was that and why? When Darcie, cleos mom doesn't show for work her manager and friend Shannon starts to worry,, after a falling out the night before.
I Love these books, all the characters, they all work as a team, there are plenty of twists in the plot, I kept turning the pages in anticipation of what was to come next. Love it love it.
If you havnt read a DI Gina Harte book, WHY NOT? I totally recommend them......

I needed to watch cartoons after reading this thrilling, albeit creepy mystery. You will understand the creep factor that I am talking about when you read it. I do not want to spoil anything. I am very glad I read this one in the daytime, but I must confess that I love to be freaked out when reading a good mystery. This one definitely freaked me out.

The Prologue leaves you scratching your head a little. You know it will tie into the story at some point, but it is not immediately apparent what it meant. This just made the mystery vibe even more mysterious for me.

Four year old Cleo is found shivering and dirty, with torn clothes in a shed behind a B & B. The only thing she will say is that the bogeyman took her mom, and her mom told her to run. Detective Gina Harte and crew arrive on the scene. When they find a little souvenir on the roadside where Darcie was kidnapped, they know they are dealing with a depraved individual. As they start digging, the secrets start coming out and the dirty laundry starts being aired. But don't think you have figured out because trust me... you do not have it figured out.

This was a fantastic twisty mystery that will astound you once you have all of the clues together. I never saw it coming. The mystery itself was more complex than it first appears which makes for exceptionally intriguing reading. The pacing of the story was perfect, and is what kept me glued to the pages until I finished it. Prepare to be chilled and mesmerized all at the same time. This is another great one for Detective Gina Harte.

Thank you to Bookouture and NetGalley for this ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Having read and thoroughly enjoyed all the other books in this series, I was keen to get my hands on this latest offering, and it did not disappoint! As with the previous 14 books, the characters are well developed, and the plot is masterfully executed. We have another multi-layered and at times complex read with lots of suspense and a great deal of mystery surrounding the kidnapper – what’s not to love? I was also pleased that there was less focus on the private lives of the team this time, as it’s investigative element where I feel this author excels. I eagerly await book 16.

I get excited when I see author Carla Kovach has a new Detective Gina Harte book coming out. Here we are at #15 in the series and I am still so excited!
Her Last Goodbye grabbed me from the beginning. Talk about lies and secrets! My head was spinning trying to keep up with everything going on!
Gina and her team have to find a kidnapper.
Nothing is adding up.
If anything, everything seems to be getting more and more complex.
Her Last Goodbye is an edge of the seat story to read!
Must read read series for thriller/suspense fans!

Thank you to NetGalley, Bookouture and author for the opportunity to read this book for my honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.

Another fabulous story from Carla Covach, she really keeps the quality high. The characters in this series are like old friends and it was fabulous to read about them again. Great plotting as usual with many red herrings. Fabulous read.

Kovach never disappoints with her books.
Gina is back and on the trial of missing women who work at the same dealership. Single digits keep appearing and Gina has to make sense of the mounting clues before it’s too late.
The action is fast, some scenes are gruesome, and the plot incorporates several different story lines very effectively.
I read quickly because I couldn’t wait to find out who was doing the crimes and the missing link that tied all the stories together.

Carla Kovach is always a must-read for me! In Her Last Goodbye we find DI Gina Harte our on yet another horrible case. She is racing against time to find the killer and determine who it is. Very involved and keeps you glued to the page!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for this ARC!

I’d like to thank Bookouture and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read ‘Her Last Goodbye’, book 15 in the Detective Gina Harte series written by Carla Kovach, in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.

DI Gina Harte is put in charge when an emaciated woman who’s had a finger cut off is found hiding behind a rubbish bin. Their investigation leads them to the abduction of more women who’ve been drugged and spied on by a person in their lofts. Time is running out to find the women and the person who hates them enough to want them dead.

‘Her Last Goodbye’ is an action-packed police thriller with DI Gina Harte leading the investigation assisted by DS Jacob Driscoll who’s now fit enough to return to work. This must be one of the most difficult and confusing cases they’ve had to deal with as they know there’s a connection between the women but it’s proving hard to work out what it is, especially as the women are all keeping a secret. The plot is cleverly thought-out with lots of drama, suspense, twists and turns, and so many suspects that it was impossible for me to guess who’s responsible. It’s been good to meet up once again with Gina and her team and I have no hesitation in recommending this thriller. I’m looking forward to reading the next in the series.

Love this really dark twisted book. It starts with a young girl hiding out in a barn but when she tells her story it’s a race against time to find her mother who the bad man took and how long has the bad man actually been watching this woman as the kid claims she saw him in her house. As this take a darker turn and another woman goes missing I won’t spoil this one but it’s a great read.

Loved it!! The Detective Gina Harte Series is definitely one of my favorites. I was hooked from the beginning and couldn't put the book down because I had to know who was behind the disappearance of Darcie and why. Poor Cleo will probably be traumatized for life. I knew there had to be some connection between the missing woman and that it must be related to what happened on the lake all the years ago. Darcie, Shannon and Anna seemed more like frenemies than actual friends. These women have terrible taste in men. I was suspicious of so many people, but never guessed who was actually behind everything. I was definitely shocked when everything was finally revealed. So much effort was put into getting revenge, when it really wasn't anyone's fault. The book kept me guessing until the very end. I can't wait for the next book in the series.

Definitely recommend the book and the previous ones in the series. This was a great mystery/thriller. Loved the characters, writing style and story. I can't wait to find out what's next for Det. Gina Harte. So glad DCI Briggs and Gina are still a couple. What's going to happen when everyone finds out? They belong together. Look forward to reading more books by the author.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Bookouture through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Just wow! Carla Kovach knocks another one out of the park! She is a definite ‘go-to’ author for me and she delivers time and time again. Such a rich cast of characters that kept me hooked from beginning to end. It was impossible to know who to trust! Packed with tension, secrets and lies. Totally loved it.
Thank you NetGalley Carla Kovach and Bookouture for the opportunity to read and review this book.

The story’s intensity and the emotional depth of the characters made it impossible to put down.

What struck me most about this book was the raw depiction of human emotions and the intricate web of relationships that Kovach expertly navigates. The suspense built with each chapter, leading to a jaw-dropping twist that I didn’t see coming.

In all, “Her Last Goodbye” is a compelling read that combines a complex mystery with a touching exploration of the lengths we go to for the ones we love. It’s a testament to Kovach’s talent for storytelling, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a crime thriller that’s both thrilling and emotionally resonant.

Brilliant book it’s lovely to see how Gina’s getting on. We have a kidnap situation they find a little girl hiding as she is terrified as she saw her mother being taken by a man, as he’s putting her in the back of a van a severed finger falls on the grass then another girl is kidnapped Gina has to find the kidnapper before another girl goes missing the story is fast paced and would never have guessed who he was.

Loved it can’t wait for next one.

Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for an ARC

The truth will out - only in this case the guilty must pay!

What a brilliant book!! I am absolutely loving this series. Having only joined at book 10 I am completely sold on Carla Kovac’s writing and this series.

Carla is brilliant at hiding the truth from the reader. She always has so many characters and they’re all so brilliantly balanced and impossibly entwined that you really can’t make a judgment until the very last chapters. Everyone is guilty of something, but are they guilty of murder?

From the moment I picked this book up to the moment I finished it I was hooked. So twisty, so thrilling and at a break neck speed!

Thank you to NetGalley for my advance copy in exchange for my honest review.

DI GIna Harte goes down the rabbit hole hunting for Darcie, who was kidnapped in front of her small daughter Cleo, Other women have also been taken and Gina realizes that she's got to solve this case not only for Cleo but for all the women, It's nicely twisty, While this is the latest in a long running series, it will be fine as a standalone. Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC. For fans of the genre, Love DI Harte.

Her last goodbye is book 15 in the D. I. Gina Harte series and yet again the author doesn’t disappoint.
When little Chloe turns up at a local B & B on her own, the police are called. D.I Gina Harte asks the child where her mother is. She tells Gina that someone wearing a mask has bundled her mother Darcie into a car. Her mother told her to run. The team are on full speed to find the missing mother. Which clues of an incident that happened 20 years ago are linked to her disappearance. When another one of Darcie’s other friends, turns up and half dead that she must be put into a coma. Who is seeking out revenge and why?
This is another complex thriller with multiple threads and characters and at first wondered how it linked together, but it all comes clear right at the end. This is another great read from the author. I can’t wait for the next book.
