Publisher's summary

"Kovac had seen more dead bodies than he could count: men, women, children; victims of shootings, stabbings, strangulations, beatings; fresh corpses and bodies that had been left for days in the trunks of cars in the dead of summer. But he had never seen anything quite like this...."

On a frigid New Year’s Eve in Minneapolis, a young woman’s brutalized body falls from the trunk of a car into the path of oncoming traffic. Questions as to whether she was alive or dead when she hit the icy pavement result in her macabre nickname, Zombie Doe. Unidentified and unidentifiable, she is the ninth nameless female victim of the year, and homicide detectives Sam Kovac and Nikki Liska are charged with the task of not only finding out who Zombie Doe is but who in her life hated her enough to destroy her. Was it personal? Or could it just have been a crime of opportunity? Their greatest fear is that not only is she their ninth Jane Doe of the year but that she may be the ninth victim of a vicious, transient serial killer they have come to call Doc Holiday. Crisscrossing America’s heartland, Doc Holiday chooses his victims at random, snatching them in one city and leaving them in another, always on a holiday. If Zombie Doe is one of his victims, he has brought his gruesome game to a new and more terrifying level. But as Kovac and Liska begin to uncover the truth, they will find that the monsters in their ninth girl’s life may have lived closer to home. And even as another young woman disappears, they have to ask the question: Which is the greater evil - the devil you know or the devil you don’t?

Love the overall performance!

The narrator was a great story teller. I absolutely love the author Tami Hoag and story line! GREAT READ!

Worth reading

Liked every minute. Didn't drag like some recent books I've read. Sad but not maudlin. Good characters and good portrayals.

really liked this book.

got into the story quickly and was captivated the whole way through. the characters are real, and they're are plenty of potential bad guys.

Total Suspense...Loved It!

Ms Hoag continues to keep me riveted as I continued reading this series. Her characters are developed in such a way that from time to time, one can't seem to figure out totally who has done the deed.

Another Great TH Book

This book kept me on my toes the entire listen. You will not go wrong with this choice.

captivating

loved this, kept me guessing until the end. the narrators were very good, the story was fast paced and had a couple of plot lines

9th Girl

I found the first half repetitive and slow. I was waiting for something to happen. Finally the second half started getting interesting and finally the last quarter was intriguing.
Sorry... I finished it because I had to.

excellent descriptive details.

I loved this book. the author did an excellent job of getting the reader to know the caracters. The plot was complicated and interesting. Very hard to put this book down. I am not sure I liked the narrator. His performance was good it was just that his voice annoyed me sometimes. It did not stop me from reading the book.
