Tess Gerritsen

"It is a boiling hot Boston summer. Adding to the city's woes is a series of shocking crimes, in which wealthy men are made to watch while their wives are brutalized. A sadistic demand that ends in abduction and death. The pattern suggests one man: serial killer Warren Hoyt, recently removed from the city's streets. Police can only assume an acolyte is at large, a maniac basing his attacks on the twisted medical techniques of the madman he so admires. At least that's what Detective Jane Rizzoli thinks. Forced again to confront the killer who scarred her--literally and figuratively--she is determined to finally end Hoyt's awful influence"--Page 4 of cover.

The Apprentice

The Surgeon has been locked up for a year but his chilling legacy still haunts the city, and especially Boston homicide detective Jane Rizzoli. But now a new killer is at work and Rizzoli senses something horrifyingly familiar about this murderer's modus operandi.



It's when the FBI starts taking an interest in the investigation that Rizzoli begins to wonder just what makes this case so different, so dangerous that the Feds feel the need to get involved.



But then the unthinkable happens: the Surgeon escapes. And suddenly there are two brilliant, twisted killers on the loose - master and apprentice, united in their hunt for the most challenging prey of all: the very woman who is hunting them.

The Apprentice (Rizzoli & Isles #2)

Izza

I couldn’t help but pick up The Apprentice this week. I read The Surgeon which is the first book in the Rizzoli & Isles series last week, and I was just craving more of Tess Gerritsen’s characters.

The Apprentice takes place a year after Warren Hoyt was caught and sent to prison. But a series of murders (by an unsub nicknamed the Dominator) suggests that Hoyt might have a partner out there. Rizzoli is the lead detective on this case, but FBI agent Gabriel Dean “crashes” her case, and she has to work in partnership with him. Dean seems to know a lot more about this perp than he admits, and Rizzoli doesn’t trust him.

At first, I was miffed that the book bore so little resemblance to the TV show, which I love and which inspired me to read the books. Into the second book and I'm glad. The books are excellent in their own right. I read this one in two days! Loved it.

It is a boiling hot summer in Boston. adding to the city's woes is a series of shocking crimes in which wealthy men are made to watch while their wives are brutalized--a sadistic demand that ends in death. The MO seems to point to Warren Hoyt, recently jailed.

If it s gripping, it s Gerritsen. The chilling follow-up to The Surgeon, and a Rizzoli and Isles bestseller.
