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.

This is one of those books that you keep reading to figure out what is going on....then you keep reading to see what happens next.

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.
