Book description
It should have been a night to remember, but Maura Isles can't
recall a thing.
Maura is at a party. A handsome man approaches. He's charming and
sophisticated. She flirts and drinks champagne. And then nothing.
Total blackness. Nothing, that is, apart from these two facts: a man
is dead and her address is found in his pocket . . .
Bestselling author Tess Gerritsen is also a physician, and she brings
this first-hand knowledge of emergency and autopsy rooms to her novels.
She wrote several highly acclaimed medical thrillers before moving on to
more deadly subject matter. Her crime thrillers starring homicide
detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles - including
The Surgeon
,
The Killing Place
and
Vanish
- brought her cult status and inspired the hit US TV series
Rizzoli
& Isles
. But Tess's interests span far more than medicine and crime. As an
anthropology student at Stanford University, she catalogued
centuries-old human remains, and she continues to travel the world,
driven by a fascination with ancient cultures and bizarre natural
phenomena.
