Her Biggest Fan. . .

When she wakes up, she's very cold. Colder than she's ever been in her life. She can't move or speak. And then she sees him. The one who took her. And before she dies, she wishes she could scream. . .

Is About To Become. . .

Former movie star Jenna Hughes left Hollywood for an isolated farm in Oregon to get away from fame. But someone has followed her--an obsessed fan whose letters are personal and deeply disturbing. And while Jenna's already shaken up by what she's seen on paper, she'd be terrified if she knew what Sheriff Shane Carter is investigating. It's a shocking case that started with the discovery of a dead woman in the woods. Now two more women are missing, one of whom bears a striking resemblance to Jenna. . .

 Her Worst Nightmare. . .

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

When beautiful Jenna Hughes moves with her two children to a small Oregon town in bestseller Jackson's well-crafted romantic thriller, the retired movie star expects to start a quiet new life, but a psychotic fan's deadly obsession soon throws the tranquil community into chaos. One by one, women are kidnapped by a serial killer who hopes to mold them into the likeness of his favorite actress, and Jenna knows that it's only a matter of time before she's the next victim. Jackson (The Morning After) weaves together various subplots, including Jenna's relationship with her rebellious teenage daughter and the inevitable love interest with the rugged local cop, to create a fast-paced and surprisingly complex story. Unfortunately, the focus on the villain's absolute evil rather than on his humanity doesn't allow him to be as disturbing as he could be, but most of the other smalltown characters are more believable. The depiction of the protagonist, a woman who desperately wants her life to be as normal as possible, reaches an unusual depth, and the crisp, skillful language infuses every sentence with suspense. Despite some predictable moments and over-the-top torture scenes, this chilling novel about the high price of fame will keep readers riveted.

4.0 out of 5 stars MURDEROUS STALKER
Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2023

Jenna used to be an actress. She’d had stalkers before, but none with such murderous intentions.
Shane is a sheriff with enough of his own baggage, but Jenna is in his jurisdiction now, and if she’s being stalked, it’s his duty to find out by whom and protect her if need be. Other women start turning up missing, and he knows he’s got his hands full with more than he can handle.
Jenna finds herself, at the end, facing the biggest acting job of her career…the stakes are higher than they’ve ever been…her daughter’s life depends on her ability to pull this off.
This was a fast-paced book. I found myself holding my breath during more than one scene, wondering who was next. I had no idea until the end who the killer was, but it proves the point, we only see the side of people that they want us to see. The other side…the darker side…is scarier than we could have imagined.

If you like a fast-paced thriller, then look no further! Ms. Jackson has a terrific style of writing that makes the pages fly by! Her description of an ongoing snowstorm throughout this book gave me a genuine chill. Her characters are very real & the plot's twists & turns are harrowing & will make you bite your nails till the final page! Violence that will make you cringe & one sex scene that adds a bit of spice. If you want to cool off during the hot summer season, this book will take you there! Prepare yourself for a wild & chilling ride!

I’ve had this book in my stack for awhile now, as I’d been hooked on audiobooks. We took a vacation so I started reading it. Impossible to put down! As an Oregonian I love books that are set there, and this once had me missing the Gorge! Such a great thriller and mystery, I didn’t realize it was a series so I am looking forward to the next book, hoping the same characters are apart of if. I absolutely loved Shane and Jenna! So glad I found this book, series, and author!

3.0 out of 5 stars Just had something missing
Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2007

I pretty much enjoyed this book, but when I finished it I felt like it was just a bit incomplete in some way. It's not that the epilogue is actually the beginning of another book, 'FATAL BURN' which I am going to read, but rather just sort of a let down from the ending of 'DEEP FREEZE'. The characters were pretty well developed but Jenna Hughes just never got to me as being all that likable. Okay, I'll say it: I never warmed to her. Carter was well done as were the daughters. Lisa Jackson does a great job of creating characters that are consistent throughout her novels. The method of murder in 'DEEP FREEZE' is --well--Chilling! One thing that bothered me in this book was the rehearsal for the local play they were working on, "IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE." Jenna and Rinda were disapointed in how badly the actors were doing and wondering if there was any hope of rescuing the production, then the statement was made about this only being the first rehearsal and there might still be time to save it. First rehearsal? Are they kidding? Having been in and worked on maybe a hundred or so stage productions, I think it's safe to say that there is no way to predict the final result of a community theater production based upon the first rehearsal. And I really question Jenna's choice of moving to Frostbite Falls from Hollywood. If she had really wanted to blend in and not be noticed, why would she move to a very small town where she would stick out. Subconciously, she must have still wanted to be in the limelight. Shoot, she could have moved to Omaha where she could have blended in and still had that small town warmth and friendliness. And the winters aren't that bad either. What was she thinking? I have to agree with Cassie on that one. There were a couple other problems I had with this work. Although Shane Carter's last minute desparation gamble was foreshadowed several times early in the book, I still thought it was kind of lame when the moment to face his fears arrived. There had to be a better way. And Cassie. The killer did not have time to prepare Cassie as he had the other victims. Why not? Precision was his mantra. I think it was more due to Cassie being the daughter of the heroine and to inflict that kind of cruelty upon Jenna's teenage daughter (love her or hate her) would have just been too much. I was disapointed though. Maybe I need therapy. The last issue I had was Amanda Pratt. There was a character I thought had promise. but she just kind of disapeared from the plot. Oh well. I have enjoyed all the Lisa Jackson books I have read so far and am always happy to recommend them to anyone. 'DEEP FREEZE' just seeems like a tough book to review though. Good book, but in the end it left me unsatisfied and I just can't get a grip on why.

I love thrillers, but this was scarier than heck- I couldn’t put it down, but sure as hell didn’t want to read it alone in the dark either! It was pretty well written, with more twists and turns than a deserted road; I never guessed “whodunnit” though there were plenty of suspects. If you love slasher movies that scare the bejesus out of you, this book’s for you…well written, but not sure I’ll read another… Yikes! 😳😬
