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.

Great book! Fast paced plot about sex slaves being smuggled into the USA post 9/11. Great mystery. Edgar nominated book. Couldn't put it down!

A horrific but fascinating look at immigration and slavery. Modern issues written by an expert mystery/crime author.

The main character, Jane, was a woman who showed that she was human like everyone else when confronted with motherhood. She was a good cop and made the story more enjoyable. The tension throughout the book kept you turning the pages to see how it would all turn out.
Helpful Score: 3
My first Gerritsen book and I was pleasantly surprised. Quite a few moments in the book where I thought "Whoa...didn't expect that." Tended to be a little slow in parts for my taste, but I can see where it was needed to really set up the characters/story etc...I'm not sure that I'll venture to read anymore in the Rizzoli-Isles books, but this one was pretty good.

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.

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.
Helpful Score: 2
The fifth in the Rizzoli and Isles series finds a very pregnant Rizzoli being held hostage by Olena, who is convinced that the U.S. government is up to no good. It's a complicated thriller that elevates conspiracy theory from 'something impossible' to 'very plausible.' The book details the horrific life of those trapped in white slavery.
Helpful Score: 2
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.
Helpful Score: 1
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.

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.

I have only read a few Tess Gerritsen books; however, I am hooked. Each is intelligently written with an intriguing story line.
This book in particular delves into the world of human trafficing while still keeping true to the series. I would highly recommend this book.

A great read...thriller, action packed- good storyline.
A chilling story of the illegal sex trade, with young foreign girls smuggled into the country. A great story as always from Tess Gerritson.
One of her best books.
Exciting--keeps you reading.
very ggod
Awesome writer!
The story was suspenseful and I liked the pacing and the unraveling of the mystery. I would recommend it. However, I did find the human traffic/sexual slavery aspect disturbing for me, personally.
A nameless woman appears to be just another body at the morgue--until Boston medical examiner Maura Isles sees the corpse open its eyes. The now-frantic Jane Doe is rushed to the hospital, where with cool precision she shoots a security guard and seizes hostages, one of whom 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 killer's identity. But this case goes far deeper than just an ordinary hostage crisis, and Jane, trapped with the armed madwoman, is the only one who holds the key to the mystery.
Tess Gerritsen has written an action-packed and very entertaining story for all mystery readers. Once you have started the story, you'll be compelled to keep reading to find out how this mystery ends. Excellent.

Interesting whodunnit.
Excellent book. Love the whole series.
This is a real good suspense story, a page turner entwined with FBI,Police and Russians involved in intrique.
Retired internist Gerritsen serves up another prescription for bad dreams in her latest thriller to feature Boston medical examiner Maura Isles and homicide detective Jane Rizzoli (Body Double). The catalogue of terrors this time out includes sexual slavery, hostage-taking and torture; there are also government bad guys, post9/11 red herrings and a heart-tugging cadre of young Eastern European women known only by their first names. Fierce Olena, thought dead, wakes up in Maura's morgue, recovers in the hospital, andwith the help of a mysterious colleaguetakes a group of hostages, including Jane, who's about to give birth. Jane's husband, FBI agent Gabriel Dean, tries to reason with the hostage-takers, and learns that Olena wants publicity to bring down the Washington bigwig responsible for sexually enslaving, then murdering, her friends. Maura feels a frisson for Tribune columnist Peter Lukas, and he seems to be the guy to tell the story, but readers will quickly apprehend that he's playing both sides. As usual, the medical details are vivid and read authentic, while the action is just this side of super-hero comic exaggeration. Does it work?
Action packed suspense thriller.
Another great story from Tess Gerritsen featuring detective Jane Rizzoli and her FBI husband Gabrial Dean that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Don't start this one at bed if you want to sleep. You really will want to keep reading until it is done!

My first Tess Gerritsen book.... it certainly won't be my last. Venish has a very unique story line and a great plot that grabs you at the first page and doesn't turn loose until you've finished the last one.
A nameless woman appears to be just another body at the morgue -- until Boston medical examiner Maura Isles sees the corpse open its eyes. The newly-awakened Jane Doe is rushed to the hospital where she shoots a security guard and takes hostages. One of the hostages is a pregnant homicide detective, Jane Rizzoli. Jane's husband, an FBI agent, works with Maura to find the killer's identity. But, this case goes deeper than just a hostage crisis, and Jane who is trapped with the madwoman, is the only one who holds the key to the mystery.
This is a quick, good read. The writing is simple -- no detailed histories or descriptions. But, the story is good and moves quickly with no slow parts. Feel free to email with any questions. ~LeAnn

i really enjoyed this book, it has story line to follow
Really good. This is a fast read and it was gripping and hard to put down. Vanish brings human trafficing back to the front to remind us all that it is alive and thriving in the United States and that we need to help stop it.

A 10 star book. Who did it and great reading. You will be kept guessing.
Not the best in the series, but a fun read nonetheless!
Good thriller, grabs you and holds on all the way thru. Excellent read.
Another great Rizzoli and Isles book. Kept me reading late into the night and had some good twists and turns. Definitely recommend!
This was one of my favorite Rizzoli N Isles books!! Fast paced, excellent story, all though creepy, these things do really happen. I think that's what made this story so moving. I thought I had an idea on who one of the bad guys were then I was wrong then I was right. This on your toes book keeps you wanting more. Finding the answers is all you are going to want to know until you put this book down. I loved how the two stories combine into one. This was a great way of doing the book. Alot of stories I read do have more than one thing going on or crime. But blending the two was ingenious. 5 stars plus some more for this book. I will read the next one in the series for sure.
These books are always good reads.
Great book, pretty suspenseful!
Excellent. I read this is two settings because I couldn't put it down. It is riveting and I was completely captivated to know "who did it!" Certainly worth the time.

The 5th book in the popular Rizzoli & Isles series is a fast-paced read. This book is well-written and well-plotted, touching on white slavery, murders and government conspiracies. I highly recommend this book. My rating: 5 Stars.

This is her best work to date. I am a big fan of Tess and have read most of her books. This is not her normal subject matter and addresses a major problem worldwide.
exciting I enjoyed it
well written thriller with conspiracy trappings-enjoyed,
Within its genre, this is an above-average read. This is not the type of book I usually read, but the premise intrigued me. I'm glad I read it.
Love this series!!! This author is terrific. She pulls you right into the plot and her characters are so real. And story lines are facinating.
Tess Gerritsen does mystery better than most. A nameless women wakes up on the table in a morgue. Maura Isles, medical examiner, rushes her to the hospital where all goes down hill. This one will keep you guessing.
Good read! Tess Gerritsen is solid--you can always count on her for a good thriller.
Tess Gerritsen always delivers and this book is no exception.
Jane Rizzoli is about to have her first baby. Her water broke so she rushed to the hospital only to encounter a desperate young woman who holds her and others hostage. The young woman was delivered to the morgue, found alive and transferred to the hospital. As she recovered she murdered a strange man with his own gun which she kept to hold her hostages.
Jane is afraid that this could be her last case but works to communicate with the hostage taker. Hopefully she can discover the motive behind the hostage taking and save herself and her baby. The story is interesting and Gerritsen writes so well that the reader cannot help but empathize with Rizzoli and her husband as they work to get to the bottom of the case. Good read.

My wife watches a great deal of television. She discovered Rizzoli & Isles on TNT. We started watching it and liked it. As usual, I then looked up the author of the books upon which it is based. I ordered the first one from Paper Back Swap. I liked it and proceeded to put together the entire series. Each book has an interesting twist, or several. As a retired police sergeant, detective, corporal, and patrolman, I have had the opportunity to interview some psychopaths and I find Gerritsen's villains to be believable. If you like mysteries, these books will satisfy.
Rizzoli & Isles do it again!
A GREAT STORY AND WRITER
It was a good enough book, but for some reason I could not get into it and was beginning to think I would not finish it. I have read some of Tess Gerritsen's other books and enjoyed those so I am not sure why I could not get into this one. Taking a newborn along when questiong somebody was a bit much for me. I know women are dedicated but this one blew me over the edge.
Fabulous, as she always is!
Such a good book! This story is terribly sad, but it is so faced pace!

Being from Boston, I appreciated the loose Bostonian setting...but even with that aside, Gerritsen is a truly gifted author with a real flair for suspense. I read this book in 2 days! One of the best thrillers I've read in a while. Can't wait to read more Jane Rizzoli books!!!!! 5 STARS!!!
