Product Description

Product 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 notebook 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 city streets: a shadowy madman without mercy or apparent motive. The police are sceptical. The mayor won't listen. And Kat's chief suspect is one of the city's most prominent citizens. The final body...might be hers. With the death toll rising, Kat races to expose a deadly conspiracy and the brutal killer at its heart - a killer who will stalk her from the dangerous streets of the inner city to the corridors of power. Because he's closer than she ever dreamt. And every move she makes could be her very last. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

About the Author

Bestselling author Tess Gerritsen is also a physician, and she brings to her novels her first-hand knowledge of emergency and autopsy rooms. But her interests span far more than medical topics. As an anthropology student at Stanford University, she catalogued centuries-old human remains, and she continues to travel the world driven by her fascination with ancient cultures and bizarre natural phenomena. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a new book, 24 May 2009
By V. Hughes (Europe) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Girl Missing (Paperback)
THE ONE STAR IS FOR THE FOLLOWING REASON ONLY -
I really wish Amazon would make it clear when a book is published with a different title. I bought this thinking it was new only to find it's fifteen years old. Yes, maybe I should have read the review that states it was originally called 'Peggy Sue Got Murdered' and usually I do but customers shouldn't have to rely on reviews to find out this information. Amazon make a habit of this as I have read many reviews which state the same thing. How hard is it to add 'previously published as'?

As for the book itself, I usually finish a book in a day if it grips me. I bought this last week and am halfway through... It's not that it's not good and I appreciate it was her first novel but her later stuff, e.g. The Surgeon, The Apprentice etc are so brilliant, it can't compare. I do enjoy all her books and would recommend The Mephisto Club and the two mentioned previously. I will finish it as it is enjoyable so I would give the book itself THREE STARS.

4.0 out of 5 stars Girl Missing, 18 May 2009
By Williamina M. Gardiner (Soutnh Wales, Great Britain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Girl Missing (Paperback)
This is a good read. Maybe not as good as some of her later books, but she was changing over from romance novels to detective/suspense novels. I think that it is well written, and certainly worth buying if you like Tess Gerritsen. The plot was good and the story held my attention to the last page.
