Book description
Three Classic CSI Novels in One Volume - Based on
the Critically Acclaimed Hit CBS Series!
DOUBLE DEALER
Meet the little known and even less understood heroes of police work
in Las Vegas -- the forensic investigators. Led by veteran Gil
Grissom, the remarkable team assigned to the Criminalistics Bureau's
graveyard shift -- including Catherine Willows, Warrick Brown, Nick
Stokes, and Sara Sidle -- must combine cutting-edge scientific methods
and old-fashioned savvy as they work to untangle the evidence behind
the yellow police tape. While Nick and Catherine investigate a newly
discovered murder committed fifteen years ago, Grissom, Warrick, and
Sara must uncover the identity of a cold-blooded killer -- one whose
execution-style, "double-tap" signature has now provoked the
interest of the FBI....
SIN CITY
"If anything happens to me, get this cassette to the
police," Lynn Pierce told her friends the night she disappeared
without a trace. Lynn was a devout Christian, and a devoted wife and
mother -- who left behind a recording of a husband threatening to cut
her into little pieces.... Jenna Patrick was a professional stripper
trying to get out of the sex trade and into junior college -- but
wound up strangled in a locked room at the club where she worked....
What could these two women possibly have had in common -- aside from
the fact that they're both victims of homicide?
COLD BURN
Remote. Peaceful. Picturesque. That's how the Mumford Mountain Hotel
bills itself in its brochure, and it lives up to its reputation --
most of the time. But this year, the hotel is hosting a prestigious
conference for the study of forensic science, and the organizers have
extended CSI head Gil Grissom an invitation he can't refuse. Joined by
fellow investigator Sara Sidle, Grissom leaves the department in the
capable hands of Catherine Willows and heads east. But he and Sara
soon find themselves in all too familiar territory -- while back in
Las Vegas, Catherine, Warrick Brown, and Nick Stokes have uncovered
foul play of their own....
