Publisher Description
The first body is a mystery.
She’s young. She’s beautiful. And her corpse, laid out in the office of Boston medical examiner Kat Novak, betrays no secrets—except for a matchbook clutched in one stiff hand, seven numbers scrawled inside.
The next body is a warning.
When a second victim is discovered, Kat begins to fear that a serial killer is stalking the streets. The police are sceptical. The mayor won’t listen. And Kat’s chief suspect is one of the town’s most prominent citizens.
The final body…might be hers.
With the death toll rising, Kat races to expose a deadly predator who is closer than she ever dreamt. And every move she makes could be her very last.

"I don't remember what other Tess Gerritsen book I read several years ago, but I was not overly impressed and had not read anything else by her since. I checked out this audiobook from the public library to listen to in the truck, and was surprised how interested I became in it. It features full character-development, interesting plotline, and natural dialogue."

" Tess Gerritsen write the Rizzoli and Isles books, so I thought this stand-alone would be good. It was very good. Tess writes well, keeps you guessing, and knows how to pack a punch at the end. "
— Phillis, 2/18/2014 -
" I have read so many of her books, but this is her first and Tess draws you into the story from the first page to the last. "
— Ruth, 2/18/2014 -
" A fast read type of book. Not really what I enjoy but a nice break. A thriller mystery with a strong romance angle! "
— Veronica, 2/13/2014 -
" Read this as an ebook on my subway commute and it was just right for that purpose. Not so thrilling that I became engrossed and missed my stop but entertaining enough that I looked forward to reading a few bits every day. As the author and several reviewers noted, this book is the crossover point from the author writing romance novels (under a different name) and her more popular medical thrillers, and it's evident that she is transitioning when reading it. As a stand alone light read its enjoyable but fans of Rizzoli and Isles may be disappointed. "
— Amy, 1/28/2014 -
" This is one of her earlier books republished but still a good read. "
— Pauline, 1/13/2014 -
" Whilst Kev is driving to Chicago i have downloaded this audio and i am listening to the book on my nook,this is a pretty good way to read the book,hehehe ! "
— Sheri, 12/30/2013 -
" A good story. Like the mixture of Thriller, medical, with a touch of romance. "
— Michaela, 12/30/2013 -
" This was the first Tess Gerritsen novel I have read and I really enjoyed it. Much gentler than the usual type of crime thriller I usually read and it contained more "romance" but still very good. I liked the pace and read the whole thing in two sittings. The writing quality was excellent. "
— Chris, 12/23/2013 -
" Loved the latest addition as it gives an insight into the suthor as this was her first crime novel. "
— Caz, 12/19/2013 -
" Good book! I will continue to read more by her. "
— Jenny, 12/14/2013 -
" I enjoyed this light read. It had mystery,romance,and suspense. "
— Lisa, 12/11/2013 -
" Too much romance to be a good mystery and too much mystery to be a good romance. Not crazy about the narrator either. "
— Jean, 7/6/2013 -
" This book is Tess Gerritsen's first attempt at thriller writing having previously written romance novels. A good starting point but not in the same league as her subsequent standalone thrillers and the even more enjoyable Rizzoli/Isles series. "
— David, 6/11/2013 -
" Another early crime/romance that certainly was not very comparable to the author's later writings. "
— Academicsupport, 5/18/2013 -
" Good book. If you like crime mysteries, this one will not disappoint you. "
— Twila, 1/27/2013 -
" A good crime read. This author always writes good crime books. "
— Amanda, 12/16/2012 -
" Not the best of Tess Gerritsen books, but a good read. "
— Reinhold, 10/10/2012 -
" I enjoyed the mixture of the two genres - romance and thriller. Definitely worth a read. "
— Noreen, 6/7/2012 -
" It was ok. At first it was interesting then it just kinda flattened out and the story got predictable and more of a romance thing. not bad but from great. Like some of Tess's later novels much better. "
— Monkey, 4/25/2012 -
" Pretty good a quick read but nothing outstanding. "
— Emma, 3/30/2012 -
" Gave up. Just boring. I'll stick to series. "
— Yas, 3/5/2012 -
" I am still unsure as to wether or not I enjoyed this book. When I read other reviews of the book I thought I was purchasing a upbeat crime thriller with plenty of murders around each corner. In reality the book swayed towards being a conspiracy thriller with a anticlimactic ending. "
— Jade, 2/16/2012 -
" Book #38 read in 2010 "
— Melissa, 11/19/2011 -
" Not as good as her later books or as bad as her earlier ones. "
— Jody, 8/8/2011 -
" Another medical thriller, but unfortunately without my favorite leads (Dr. Isles and Rizzoli). Still, it was a good read. But the title was very deceptive. Peggy Sue didnot have much to do with the story line, except for appearing in the beginning and end. Still I would recommend this to TG fans. "
— Smitha, 4/19/2011 -
" I love Tess Gerritsen. This was good but not as good as her later ones, wont stop me reading anymore of the earlier ones though. "
— Lisa, 4/7/2011 -
" Major case of who done it!! "
— April, 3/10/2011 -
" Read if you're a die-hard Gerritsen fan; otherwise, skip to her newer work, which is much, much better. "
— Becky, 2/26/2011 -
" One can def. tell this is one of Tess' first novels. It is good, but it is not the caliber of TG work that you see in the Rizzoli/Isles works..I will probably get out of this book <strong>3.5/5</strong> "
— Naomi, 1/28/2011 -
" When medical examiner Kat Novak starts to see a trend of overdoses on a new and deadly drug she starts pushing for an investigation that could be deadly for her. As always I enjoy Tess Gerritsen's writing style and give this stand alone ????;s. "
— Sheila, 1/24/2011 -
" This was one of Tess Gerritisen's early works into the mystery realm. The plot was pretty good until the end where it just aburptly ended. I thought the plot was interesting with drug angle and the inner city angle. Nice start. "
— Jill, 1/19/2011 -
" Due to my own personal history I have found the main character compelling. "
— Kinga, 1/5/2011 -
" Got halfway through and the pace never picked up. Not even Sue Ericksen could help this one. Boring... "
— Antoinette, 12/13/2010 -
" Not quite as good as the Jane Rizzoli series but still really enjoyable. <br/> "
— David, 10/21/2010 -
" the change in her style of wrighting certainly was the start of her new genre' "
