From the New York Times bestselling author of The Surgeon and The Apprentice comes a chilling new novel of suspense featuring Boston medical examiner Dr. Maura Isles, on the deadly trail of an anonymous madman who’s committed an unholy crime. Not even the icy temperatures of a typical New England winter can match the bone-chilling scene of carnage discovered in the early morning hours at the chapel of Our Lady of Divine Light. Within the sanctuary walls of the cloistered convent, now stained with blood, lie two nuns—one dead, one critically injured—victims of an unspeakably savage attacker. The brutal crime appears to be without motive, and the elderly nuns in residence can offer little help in the police investigation. But medical examiner Maura Isles’s autopsy of the dead woman yields a shocking surprise: Twenty-year-old Sister Camille, the order’s sole novice, gave birth before she was murdered. Then the disturbing case takes a stunning new turn when another woman is found murdered in an abandoned building, her body mutilated beyond recognition. Together, Isles and homicide detective Jane Rizzoli uncover an ancient horror that connects these terrible slaughters. As long-buried secrets come to light, Maura Isles finds herself drawn inexorably toward the heart of an investigation that strikes closer and closer to home—and toward a dawning revelation about the killer’s identity too shattering to consider. As spine-tingling as it is mind-jolting, The Sinner showcases Tess Gerritsen in peak form—bringing her intimate knowledge of the dark depths of criminal investigation brilliantly to bear. Beneath its layers of startling insight into the souls of its characters, and the richly wrought depiction of the everyday war between good and evil, beats the unstoppable heart of an irresistible thriller. PRAISE FOR TESS GERRITSEN The Surgeon “A briskly paced, terrifically suspenseful work that steadily builds toward a tense and terrifying climax.” —People (Page-Turner of the week) “Creepy . . . [The Surgeon] will exert a powerful grip on readers.” —Chicago Tribune “Grabbed me by the throat and didn’t let go.” —TAMI HOAG The Apprentice “Skillful and scary.” —The Washington Post Book World “An adrenaline rush from start to finish.” —IRIS JOHANSEN “Masterful . . . Gerritsen moves into the Thomas Harris class, though with a style all her own.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) Download and start listening now!

    " This book was very engaging. It draws you in and keeps you guessing throughout. Tess Gerritsen does an amazing job at weaving in the intricacies of the human nature into the novel. Even when you think you know what the next plot turn will be, the underlying motives keep you from stopping until you finish the book. "

  • 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Sarah | 5/22/2020

    " This book has several twists and turns. It is well worth it! "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Christine | 2/4/2014

    " I'm really enjoying the Rizzoli/Isles series "

  • 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Sally | 2/2/2014

    " I'm loving Tess Gerritsen even though I normally don't read anything with even a hint of gore. She is so skillful at making the reader care about her characters, that I would probably follow her just about anywhere. This story, in particular, was fantastic thanks to the way she weaves external conflicts to internal conflicts. Just a great read. "

  • 5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Ty | 1/22/2014

    " Finally, we are getting to "know" the Rizzoli and Isles we've "known" on TV. The first two books didn't even involve Isles. And although their personal lives are different in the books from the show, we are starting to develop the relationship between the two main characters that I love on the TV show. Can't wait for the next book to come from the library! "

    " Pg 268 & 269 says it all! Jane confronts the bad guy who is in a wheel chair after a stroke. She leans forward and whispers in his ear what she really thinks of him and he can't respond due to the stroke. One on the best scenes ever featuring Jane. Creepy. Fantastic writing! "
