THE FIRST BODY IS A MYSTERY.
br>She's young. She's beautiful. And her corpse, laid out in the office of Boston medical examiner Cat Novak, betrays no secrets - except for a notebook clutched in one stiff hand, seven numbers scrawled inside.
THE NEXT BODY IS A WARNING.
br>When a second victim is discovered, Cat begins to fear that a serial killer is stalking the city streets: a shadowy madman without mercy or apparent motive. The police are sceptical. The mayor won't listen. And Cat's chief suspect is one of the city's most prominent citizens.
THE FINAL BODY...MIGHT BE HERS.
br>With the death toll rising, Cat races to expose a deadly conspiracy and the brutal killer at its heart - a killer who will stalk her from the dangerous streets of the inner city to the corridors of power. Because he's closer than she ever dreamt. And every move she makes could be her very last.

"You Should Know..."
I have not finished this book, and I admit it is not bad, but anyone who purchases it should be aware that this is not a new book. It is retitled from a book written in 1998 (I think--the author tells you at the beginning of the book).
It was written before the author moved into suspense, so it is basically a romance novel with some suspense.
There is no way of knowing this from the information available on Audible. I consider this rather unethical, as I was not looking for an old romance novel, but rather one of the excellent suspense novels that this author currently writes.
"Great Story Line"
Gerritsen was evolving to thriller suspense and this was her first! It is a rewrite with a different title. However, She did a great job with it and it was a great listen!
"okay"
I actually did not guess the bad guy, but it was pretty predictable. I wish I'd known before I bought the book that it's an old book, just repackaged. I wanted a brand new book, but at least I had not read it already.
Not the best, not the worst.
"Great Book, Not Heavy Romance"
Even Tess Gerritsen states that this was her cross over from "romance" to more of that medical mystery and I have to say that Girl Missing (aka Peggy Sue Got Murdered) was a great mystery and not heavy on romance. Yes there was enough of a romantic tug that I was happy and mad and excited but the story line had me more. I was surprised by the end and enjoyed the way that Gerritsen attempted to adapt the book to be "newer" it is funny though technology is so ever changing we can't ever be on top. I highly recommend this book and now have become a true Tess Gerritsen fan.
"Like being stuck in an elevator"
Oh my god! This was maybe the worst listen I've had so far. I had to quit after 90 minutes. The narrator had me grinding my teeth and thinking of elocution specialist hell - I doubt even a better reader could have saved the writing though. Just Plain Bad! I gave it one star because I wasn't given the option of zero....
“I love all genres of books, however when I listen to audio books as I clean, garden, drive they are better with a lot of heat!
"Loved the story"
Gerritsen was evolving to thriller suspense and this was her first! It is a rewrite with a different title. However, She did a great job with it and it was a great listen!
"begging for a series!!!!!"
loved this book so much that I am begging the author to consider making it a series.
"Excellent story."
Terri Gerritsen knows how to weave a story and help you build a connection with the characters.
Drama and a voice to the character.
Audible addicted love mystery,lately stuck on love story. Mother of 1 Labrador and 1 perfect man. Work way too hard, and so ready to be retired
"I like it even if it was a remake it was my first"
I like the voices sue is the best
Like eve and Rourke in the death series
Cat and Adam and the little girl
No
I would like to see the book go into a series I would buy it but only if Susan erickson read it
"Don't bother."
A better story. Thought it was new but not up to Gerritsen current standards.
