"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 skeptical. 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"--Container.… (mere)

A quick read, the story will keep you on the edge of your seat. I'm not a big fan of every mystery including a love story, but I did enjoy the characters and their interactions. Definitely worthwhile to read. An excellent book for the beach or when you are looking for something fun and fast.

(I received the book for free through Goodreads First Reads.) (

"They were relics from an earlier age, born of good intentions, but doomed by location and design".

Girl Missing by Tess Gerritsen

Originally entitled, "Peggy sue got murdered", this one was all right. I read it on a plane and it served its purpose. I finished it as we were landing!

It is a somewhat generic thriller about girls dying all over a town. There is a mystery drug involved and a lady trying to solve the case and some romantic entanglements. If I sound vague it is because I am. I actually read it a long time ago and never reviewed.

It is not a great read but perfect when aboard a plane for a long trip. Even though it is thriller territory, there is a nice little romance in there too so it is a combo of a mystery and chick lit.

They do get graphic when discussing the..um m..Corner's evidence. Actually very graphic . That was a bit off putting.

This book really strongly reminded me of a CSI episode which is not so bad if you are a CSI fan. I have read many worse books out there. This one held my interest but was not anything remarkable. (

This is a re-release of one of Gerritsen's earlier books (Peggy Sue Got Murdered). I believe it's been slightly revised to be modernized. As with many of Gerritsen's books it's about a Medical Examiner who stumbles upon a serial killer and ends up in danger herself before she solves the mystery.

Look. It's Gerritsen. If you like Gerritsen, like MEs who investigate, and like mysteries that take place in Boston, then you'll like this.

It's always fun to revisit the "old stuff," which is what this is for Gerritsen. It's a keeper.
