About This Audiobook
A young woman's body is found posed in a house decorated with horror movie memorabilia, and the cause of death resists the obvious explanation. When Detective Jane Rizzoli and Dr. Maura Isles discover a connection to a supposedly solved murder from years earlier, the question of whether justice was actually served becomes urgent as the body count grows. The twelfth Rizzoli and Isles novel finds Tess Gerritsen in her element: layered plotting, character-driven tension, and a villain whose method is as revealing as the crimes themselves.
Tanya Eby narrates with authority and emotional accuracy, and her handling of the series' central partnership — Jane's physicality versus Maura's analytical distance — maintains the distinct voices that long-term listeners depend on. The horror-film setting gives Eby material that rewards her slightly heightened approach to the more atmospheric sequences. At just over nine hours, this is a well-paced entry that delivers the series at its most assured.
