Tess Gerritsen has written a book that I just couldn't put down. Two stories are being told simultaneously, and then they merge as one great tale!!! White slavery, a hostage crisis, a pregnant police officer with an FBI agent husband, and many more twists and turns. I can't recomend highly enough if you love the mystery genre.

Next to _Harvest_, this is Gerritsen's best work to date. This novel moves fast and contains both an engaging plot and some unexpected twists and turns. Recurring characters appear in this one, but you don't need to follow the series in order to enjoy this.

A PBS recycle!! I love this author!! Can't wait for more credits to get more of her books!!
ShereeR.

A nameless, beautiful women appears to be just another corpse in the morgue. But when Boston medical examiner Maura Isles unzips the body bag and looks down at the body, she gets the fright of her life. The corpse opens her eyes.
Very much alive, the women is rushed to the hospital. But the bizarre soon turns lethal. With shockingly cool precision, she murders a security guard and seizes hostages... one of them is pregnant homicide detective Jane Rizzoli.
As the tense hours tick by, Maura joins forces with Jane's husband, FBI agent Gabriel Dean, to track down the mysterious killer's identity. When federal agents suddenly appear on the scene, Maura and Gabriel realize that they are dealing with a case that goes far deeper than just an ordinary hostage crisis.
I love Tess Gerritsen's writing and characters. Another book thats hard to put down.

Wow, Gerritsen does it again. Detective Jane Rizzoli finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time - at the hospital just about to give birth. When she finds herself hostage of a woman who'd been declared dead, then resuscitated - she gets swept up in a tale of secrecy, violence and scandal that seems impenetrable. This is one you won't be able to put down.

The final (so far) featuring Det. Rizzoli. Another gruesome, suspenseful crime read. Almost too many twists and political stuff to keep straight. Probably my least fav of the 5.
The surgeon, the apprentice, the Sinner, Body Double and Vanish.

Excellent

Great read. Love her writing.

it was really good. I loved it and I can't wait to read some more of her work!!!

Excellent stayed up all night reading this.

What a great read! Excellent story, great writing. I didn't want to stop reading this book and didn't want the story to end.

A corpse suddenly comes to life in the cold storage of the Medical Examiner's office. A Boston policewoman, nine months pregnant, goes into labor when the Diagnostic Imaging department becomes the set of a hostage situation. A hospital security guard, killed by the reanimated corpse who turns out not to be dead after all, isn't registered as a hospital employee. Neither, it seems is the doctor who was tending to her. The hostage taker calls the local radio station as the cop's FBI husband watches the scene unfold from outside, and issues the statement that "the die is cast." An unidentified man, dressed similarly to the Tactical Operatives surrounding the hospital, walks into the building without being stopped.

This is just the begining of Tess Gerritsen's latest thriller, and the story gets better with every page. As a conspiracy gets uncovered the lead characters get thrust into more and more danger. Another winner, VANISH is a wonderful police thriller.

Terrifc thriller. Gerritson at her best.

This is one of the first books that I have read by Tess Gerritsen. Great book infact as I finished this one I started the Mehphisto and that is also very good so far.

Excellent - I really liked ths book!!

A nameless corspe in the morgue turns out to be ALIVE! As the bodybag is unzipped she opens her eyes! Only gets better from here. A Homicide Detective goes to the hospital in labor.Finds herself trapped inside as it is put on lockdown. Inside with a buch of wackos? This is just the BEGINNING!!!

Easy reading and kept my interest the entire time. Little twist at the end.

Love Tess Gerritsen!!

Tess does it again!
