Summary

New York City Medical Examiner Edward Jenner thought he'd got out, turning his back forever on forensics after the nightmare of 9/11. But then his students started turning up dead, their bodies forced into bizarre poses, and Jenner is dragged back into the city's dark streets in a nightmare race against the clock-and the twisted imagination of a psychopath.

College sophomore Ana Dejong survived the attack that killed her roommate; she thought she'd escaped, but the killer has other plans...

Great Book

Was very impressed with this book. Was a little worried when I read a review stating that it was very graphic and full of blood, but could not have enjoyed this book more. It is in the thriller genre and is very descriptive about the murders, but what do you expect when reading this type of book. I am a huge Karin Slaughter fan, and honestly found this book slightly tame compared to her graphic descriptions, but still thoroughly enjoyed it. Of course as with all thriller novels you guess some of the plot and a little can be very similar to other books, but overall I found this a refreshing take in most areas and very well written, definitely not a disappointing download, thank you.

First time with this author..

and..i was impressed generally. Good action, good plot. Reservations are that the characters were not terribly well-rounded, and most of all, there was no epilogue. What happened after the action??? It is a compliment to the book that I wanted to know this, but the ending was too stark. I would like to read more.

Good listing

I really enjoyed this book, the murders are very detailed and the narrator was easy to listen to. The only reason I didn't give this book a full five stars is that other books I have listened to have slightly topped this one. But great if you like as I do detailed murder scenes........

Truly the edge of my seat!!!

This book scared me and kept me on the edge of my seat until the last minute! At first I thought it might be another typical murder thriller but this is clever, creepy and climaxes in an astonishing finale. Can't wait for audible to make more books by this author available!
