Michelle Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 At Pilgrim Hospital, on a Saturday night, the media are gathered to see an CT of a mummy, recently found in the basement of a museum during an inventory. It comes to a sudden end, however, when an image of a bullet is shown.. making this a much more recent corpse. Maura Isles was present at the scan, and so she promptly calls in Jane Rizzoli to investigate. Following another ghastly discovery, it becomes apparent that they are dealing with a new killer.. one with a fascination of ancient Egyptian rituals. This is the latest in the series that began with The Surgeon, although it works just as well as a stand alone book. There are glimpses into the worlds of Maura and Jane, but the main focus is on the crimes, and Tess has obviously done her research. It Quote
madcow Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Oh wow, off to the library! Ditto, I can hardly wait Quote
LG1976 Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Sounds good I think I will look out for this! Quote
Michelle Posted September 27, 2008 Author Posted September 27, 2008 Unfortunately it's not out in the UK until Jan next year. It's been released elsewhere, so it is possible to get hold of a copy in places such as amazon, but it won't be in your library just yet. Quote
Karen1 Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 So many books and just not enough time in the day to read them all. I'll add this to my 'books to look out for' list. Quote
Charm Posted September 27, 2008 Posted September 27, 2008 Wow! This sounds absolutley fantastic. I will definately watch out for it. She's one of my favourite authors. Does this one sort of run on after The Bone Garden or am i completely wrong? I'm still trying to get a hold of it too. Quote
Michelle Posted September 27, 2008 Author Posted September 27, 2008 The Bone Garden is a stand alone book, I believe. http://www.tessgerritsen.co.uk/books/ Quote
