New York City's oldest medical center is the scene of a ghastly attack: top neurosurgeon Gemma Dogen is found in her office, where she has been sexually assaulted and designated by the cops as a "likely to die." By the time assistant D.A. Alexandra Cooper has plunged into the case, it's a high-profile, media-infested murder investigation. As Alex's passion to find the killer intensifies, she discovers that she is the next target for lethal violence.

"Love this author and series! Can't wait to read the rest of the books in the Alex Cooper series. I'm reading them out of order, though, which horrifies Jamie. She would NEVER do that! "

Quotes
-
“An authoritative and scary view from one who has battled evil and locked it away. Fairstein just gets better. Get to know her if you dare.”
— Patricia Cornwell -
“Stylish...engaging...Linda Fairstein's second novel takes its title from police slang for a crime victim whose death is inevitable. As in her previous novel, Final Jeopardy, the author places a smart and driven Manhattan prosecutor named Alexandra Cooper at the center of the action.”
— New York Times Book Review -
“A whopping whodunit...With its taut plot and classy setting, Likely to Die is an uptown act.”
— People -
“A first-rate mystery novel by someone who writes about what she knows and truly knows about what she writes.”
— New York Daily News

— Joseph, 3/2/2011 -
" I really like this writer. Stories are interesting and they keep you guessing. I also like that her books are set in NYC too. "

" it was good...not great just good. "
— Denise, 1/10/2011 -
" Alexandra Cooper is a very intreguing character and has good friends watching her back, which is necessary in her line of work. Not as guesome as a Tammy Hoag or gory as Patricia Caldwell, but interesting in the lines of sex crimes. "
— Kathy, 9/23/2009 -
" One of those mysteries/murders I wouldn't have read if I had another good book waiting. "
— Judy, 9/3/2009 -
" Good; Continuing character: Alexandra Cooper; DA and the police try to solve the murder in a hospital of a prominent doctor. <br/> "
— Joe, 8/28/2009 -
" Alexandra Cooper, ADA in the Sex Crimes Unit of the NYDP and her cohorts Mike Chapman and Mercer are investigating the murder of neurosurgeon. There are lots of twists and turns to the plot which fast paced and may make you think twice about going to the hospital!! "
— Vionna, 7/19/2009 -
" This is the second Linda Fairstein book I've read now. Her stories are good, fast paced, never boring. On to the next book Cold Hit. "
— Carol, 7/16/2009 -
" Farstein's books include a lot of interesting detail based on the author's experience heading he sex crimes unit of the Manhattan D.A. office. I do wish that Alexandra Cooper could solve some of the cases without getting herself into a situation where she is attacked by he killer. "
— Lila, 6/20/2009 -
" Another good whodunit...........I love the way she keeps the reader guessing. "
