The Apprentice by Tess Gerritsen

5.0

What an amazing follow up from book 1 The Surgeon! Intense doesn’t begin to describe The Apprentice, this is a on the edge of your seat, heart racing suspense that i couldn’t get enough of. There is consistently always something going on. Not only is it a fast paced thriller but i find myself learning so much about things like autopsies and medical procedures ect..

I’m so glad we got to hear about Jane Rizzoli in more depth , I not only like her more in this book but i understand her better. Her character has come along way in this book, her character development was amazing. I loved the tension between her and mysterious FBI Agent Gabriel Dean. I found his character so intriguing. Would LOVE for him to be in more of this series, i can’t get enough!!!

One year after Rizzoli put ‘The Surgeon” behind bars a new serial killer is on the loose, with extreme similarities to the surgeons signatures Jane gets dragged into the case and has to face a lot of demons she spent a year trying to fight. When The Surgeon escapes from jail she is once again a target. (My first thoughts on him escaping from jail was that it seemed far fetched but as you go into his mind it all then makes sense and works out well)

i’ve never been more hooked on a series of books quite like these before, i can not put them down and i can not wait to start the next. they are everything you want in a thriller book. it exceeds my expectations and i would happily add these books to the top of my favourites list.
