Last to Die: A Rizzoli and Isles Novel, Book 10

Tess Gerritsen once again brings together Boston PD Detective Jane Rizzoli and Medical Examiner Maura Isles in this taut crime thriller full of delicious twists and edge-of-your-seat suspense. There is less emphasis on the details of forensic pathology than in other books in this series, with Maura Isles playing a surprisingly different role in the unfolding of the enigma of three twice-orphaned children and the deaths of their parents and guardians. The plot takes one unexpected turn after another in a wild ride through realms ranging from metaphysics to astrophysics and just about everything in between.

Great narration especially in capturing Rizzoli's gritty Boston cop's tone and accent. I had a hard time breaking away from this book and found every conceivable excuse to get back to it as soon as possible!

The book is excellent, and the narration is just as good. Tanya Eby narrates in such a way that you would think that there was more than one person narrating the story. This book is a must read, even to be re-read again and again. I highly recommend this book!

I love Tess Gerritsen's series but this one was just not believable - and boring - and relied too much on earlier book (which I had read, but others may not have).

Sad to say, not really. And I love her books!! I guess I would recommend buying it, but not having high expectations.

I especially enjoyed the young adult characters. They really made the book for me.

There was a lot of mystery about why everything was happening; and you didn't find out until right at the end what was driving the story.

This was the first Rizzoli and Isles book I have listened to. I've seen the TV series though. I'm going to continue to listen to these because the characters, the plotting and the writing is so good.

SHEER ENTERTAINMENT, IT KEPT ME UP ALL 11 HOURS.

THE ENDING, WHICH YOU DO NOT SEE COMING.

NO, I DO NOT BELIEVE SO. SHE DID AN EXCELLENT JOB WITH THE SCRIPT AND MANY CHARACTERS. BRAVO!!!! AS WE KNOW NOT EVERYONE CAN DO IT.

THE ENDING, LOVE CONQUERS ALL.

USE YOUR CREDIT HERE, A GREAT MYSTERY AND A GREAT THRILLER. I HAVE FOUND FEW BOOKS THAT CAN DO BOTH IN ONE BOOK.

This book is pure entertainment, from Ms. Gerritsen's weaving of the tale to Ms. Eby's wonderful performance. There were so many intriguing plot twists that I was guessing until the end. In all, lots of fun and recommended (just make sure you have time to listen to it in almost one sitting)!

The story is a good Rizzoli and Isles mystery. But the narrator sounded the same for everyone and would occasionally slip in a Boston accent. It was like "Oh yes Jane is from Boston I need to talk with an accent".

great story - Tess put out another great book - i loved it!

the narrator has a lisp and I found it EXTREMELY distracting....i had to stop listening to the audiobook and go out and buy the hardback.

Whoever keeps hiring narrators with lisps needs to be fired.

Right off, I really didn't care for this book. I read some books a long time ago that involved Rizzoli and Isles, Body Double and The Bone Garden and thought they were good. I spent alot of time on this one saying to myself..Do I really have to listen to the series to understand what is happening now? Too many references to past books and story lines, I think to really like this book you had to have read them all and formed a strong feeling for these 2.
That aside, this story really was uninteresting and more about the lives of the 2 women and not really a good mystery. Found the main idea, although starting off good, falling flat a couple of chapters later and staying that way. I didn't really care about these kids at all. Think the author didn't either.
Tanya Eby wasn't all that bad. I have never listened to her before. I don't think she has a lisp like one reviewer said, it just may be the way it gets annunciated and the recording settings. Either way, it wasn't irritating like stated ( really rather hear that than swallowing or every movement of the mouth). I also didn't have a problem with her accents. Sounded like they came from the east USA for the most part not faltering much at all. I didn't like tho, some of the male voices, i.e. Julians. A female doing a mans voice is hard. A female doing a mans voice and trying to make it sound smart is another. Didn't care for that much. She wasn't the most interesting reader but think everyone on audible has their favorites.
So if you have listened to the whole Rizzoli- Isles series, go for it. You probably will enjoy getting to hear what the ladies have been up to. I personally didn't care, wasn't wanting to form a relationship, I just wanted a good book. I don't think this was it. I am going to try and stop ignoring that little voice.

I did not read the print version.

Excellent plot, lots of twists and turns. It keeps you guessing as to what happens next.

Very good reader. She knows how to bring out the emotions.

No extreme reaction but kept me glued to the speaker phones.

This is my first book by Tess Gerritsen. I will definitely try one of her other books.
