Audio Book Summary

Jane Rizzoli and Maura Isles—the inspiration for the hit TNT series—continue their bestselling crime-solving streak.

A blessed event becomes a nightmare for pregnant homicide detective Jane Rizzoli when she finds herself on the wrong side of a hostage crisis in this timely and relentless thriller.

A nameless, beautiful woman appears to be just another corpse in the morgue. An apparent suicide, she lies on a gurney, awaiting the dissecting scalpel of medical examiner Maura Isles. But when Maura unzips the body bag and looks down at the body, she gets the fright of her life. The corpse opens its eyes.

Very much alive, the woman is rushed to the hospital, where with shockingly cool precision, she murders a security guard and seizes hostages . . . one of them a pregnant patient, Jane Rizzoli.

Who is this violent, desperate soul, and what does she want? 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.

Only Jane, trapped with the armed madwoman, holds the key to the mystery. And only she can solve it–if she survives the night.

    A not so easy listen due to the storyline but a very good book with a happy ending. ***Spoiler*** Anyone who has dealt with rape, sexual trauma and/or any kind of abuse may want to avoid. Some situations in the story may be triggering***.

    Tess is great and the story is as suspensful as I expected. But it's also so darn depressing. Can't hold it against Tess - this horror needs to be exposed. Still an outstanding story.

    I enjoyed this book very much, the plot was good as well. I think what I loved most about it was how descriptive the author was. I would have probably gave it four stars, but the ending wasn't as good as the rest of the book. It was almost as if the author was writing a number one selling book and got tired of writing it at the end and just gave it a very common and predictable ending. But in my opinion, very worth the listen.

    This is the second book in this series that I have read. This was a bit different story with a more FBI component to it . The story ended to soon. I am looking forward to listening to more of Tess Garritsen's stories.

    I liked this book very much, as I get to know a character, I look for more books with the same people in them. Makes for a very interesting and connecting read.

    Tess can do no wrong. Once again, brilliant story-line that's fast paced with a knockout punch! I could barely tell it was abridged.
