The Surgeon by Tess Gerritsen

5.0

---

My hubby and I loved watching the show Rizzoli and Isles together, and as with all good tv shows based off books, I was compelled to read the novels. The Surgeon is book one in the series. I was a tad disappointed that Isles isn't in book one, but aside from that I loved it. We get to experience what happens to Rizzoli just prior to the start of the show, which gives lots of insight to her character. With lots of suspense this novel firmly falls into the category of murder mystery with a sprinkling of slasher throughout.
