the surgeon
author Tess garrison.
synopsis.
In her most masterful novel of medical suspense, New York Times bestselling
author Tess Gerritsen creates a villain of unforgettable evil--and the one
woman who can catch him before he kills again.
He slips into their homes at night and walks silently into bedrooms where women
lie sleeping, unaware of the horrors they soon will endure. The precision of
the killer's methods suggests he is a deranged man of medicine, propelling the
Boston newspapers and the frightened public to name him "The Surgeon."
The cops' only clue rests with another surgeon, the victim of a nearly
identical crime. Two years ago, Dr. Catherine Cordell fought back and killed
her attacker before he could complete his assault. Now she hides her fears of
intimacy behind a cool and elegant exterior and a well-earned reputation as a
top trauma surgeon.
Cordell's careful facade is about to crack as this new killer recreates, with
chilling accuracy, the details of Cordell's own ordeal. With every new murder
he seems to be taunting her, cutting ever closer, from her hospital to her
home. Her only comfort comes from Thomas Moore, the detective assigned to the
case. But even Moore cannot protect Cordell from a brilliant hunter who somehow
understands--and savors--the secret fears of every woman he kills.
Filled with the authentic detail that is the trademark of this doctor turned
author . . . and peopled with rich and complex characters--from the ER to the
squad room to the city morgue--here is a thriller of unprecedented depth and
suspense. Exposing the shocking link between those who kill and cure, punish
and protect, The Surgeon is Tess Gerritsen's most exciting accomplishment yet.
my comments.
I could not put this book down and I was hooked. I would highly recommend this
book and look forward to book two in the series which iâm going to start
today.
5 out of 5.
