Synopsis
He Hides. When an ancient mummy is discovered in the basement of a museum in down-town Boston, excitement starts to mount. Under the glare of a media frenzy, the mummy is taken to hospital for a CT scan. Forensic pathologist Maura Isles is also invited to attend. He Kills. As the CT scan proceeds everyone in the room leans in - and gasps in horror as an image of a bullet is revealed. Maura declares it a possible homicide, and calls in detective Jane Rizzoli. He Keeps. When the preserved body of a second victim is found, and then a third, it becomes clear that taking their lives is not enough for this terrifying killer. And that unless Maura and Jane can find and stop him, he will soon be adding yet another chilling piece to his monstrous collection.
Review
Tess Gerritsen gives a refreshing viewpoint on books revolving around murders and medical examiners in the US.
The book is not focused on the medical examiner and her life like many others, but rather focuses on the different characters in the story and how they take part in the case. The characters are well written and their personalities described in a way that enables you to have a detailed picture of them from the start. The way the story is written keeps you interested all the way through - a definite page turner.
