Very good. Connecting readers with great books since 1972! Used books may not include companion materials, and may have some shelf wear or limited writing. We ship orders daily and Customer Service is our top priority!
This book is too gory even for Tess & even for me - both physicians. The concept is horrifying.
I can't recommend it.

A tight, scaary thrillere
In this well-written journey into the minds of those who would inflict incredible pain upon randomly-chosen victims and those who are charged with stopping them, Dr. Gerritsen introduces some characters we will be happy to follow and others who might give us nightmares. If you like the genre, this is one of the betteer ones.

Excellent
Since The Surgeon, I have read three more of Tess Gerritsens' books and ordered two more. She is wonderful. You feel like you are there.

The Surgeon
Excellent! Hard to close the book once the reading begins. Followed the TV show with a slight twist at the end. Can't wait to read the other books in the series.
