Very engaging and easy to read (finished the whole thing in two sittings in less than a day), enjoyed the medical details and I found the killers POV moments creative and intriguing but was bored by the two main characters and found them very unsympathetic (especially Rizzoli's internalised misogyny and both cops' unethical behaviour at different points). Was also highly disappointed by the completely unnecessary "twist" that

Anyways, I love these books. They're brilliantly written and perfectly gory! If you have an active imagine as I do, then you'll have no trouble envisioning certain parts.
I love Rizzoli and cannot wait until Maura Isles comes in!! I haven't read The Surgeon in quite some time, so while reading I was gasping and shocked at some of the things I read! 😂
