Vanish: A Rizzoli & Isles Novel

De: Tess Gerritsen

Narrado por: Susan Denaker

Jane Rizzoli and Maura Isles—the inspiration for the hit TNT series—continue their bestselling crime-solving streak.

A blessed event becomes a nightmare for pregnant homicide detective Jane Rizzoli when she finds herself on the wrong side of a hostage crisis in this timely and relentless thriller.

A nameless, beautiful woman appears to be just another corpse in the morgue. An apparent suicide, she lies on a gurney, awaiting the dissecting scalpel of medical examiner Maura Isles. But when Maura unzips the body bag and looks down at the body, she gets the fright of her life. The corpse opens its eyes.

Very much alive, the woman is rushed to the hospital, where with shockingly cool precision, she murders a security guard and seizes hostages . . . one of them a pregnant patient, Jane Rizzoli.

Who is this violent, desperate soul, and what does she want? As the tense hours tick by, Maura joins forces with Jane’s husband, FBI agent Gabriel Dean, to track down the mysterious killer’s identity. When federal agents suddenly appear on the scene, Maura and Gabriel realize that they are dealing with a case that goes far deeper than just an ordinary hostage crisis.

Only Jane, trapped with the armed madwoman, holds the key to the mystery. And only she can solve it–if she survives the night.©2005 Tess Gerritsen; (P)2005 Books on Tape, Inc.

“NEVER FAILS TO DELIVER CHILLING SUSPENSE . . .
leaves the reader breathless.”

–HARLAN COBEN

“THE STORY ZIPS ALONG. . . . A DELIGHTFULLY BIZARRO PLOT TWIST.”
–Entertainment Weekly

worst nightmare

I thought this was a really good listen. At times I was very disturbed about the situations with the women, that I had to turn the player off and listen after a few min. For a woman its your worst nightmare for yourself as well as for your daughters. I really liked the story and it always kept my attention!!

Great but...

I loved this story. But I should have read it myself. Susan Denaker made this great mystery novel sound more like a dramatic reading of a Harlequin Romance. She nearly ruined the story. To make matters worse, her Boston accents were more like NYC and they were so horribly inconsistent that I had difficulty figuring out who was speaking.

Defiantly worth your time if you like police drama

I am new to Tess Gerritsen so going sole on the reviews of others I started with this title. Very good story line. The reader seems to slow a little in the middle but the story picks up and so does the readers excitement. I am looking for to the next selection from Gerritsen?s collection. It is defiantly worth your time if you like police type drama stuff.

awesome

I loved this book...it was so twisty. now I know Jane had a baby girl.

Definitely not as great as her other books

I like to read/listen to Gerristens books, but the reader on this one had me droning out. The story line wasn't very good but the twist at the end was pretty good. In comparison to her other books this one didn't quite measure up.
