Tess has once again written a compelling mystery and woven all the threads in a beautiful tale. I felt Rat (who we met in the previous book, ICE COLD) played an important role in this story.
My favorite Rizzoli & Isles novel is The Keepsake (book 7 in the series); my second favorite in the series is ICE COLD (book 8). I think The Silent Girl ties with Vanish (book 5) as my 3rd favorite :-) Body Double is a good one too... Oh Hell, they are all so damn good because TESS GERRITSEN is AMAZING!!!!

A woman's body found on a rooftop with her hand severed begins an investigation into a supposed murder/suicide in Chinatown 19 years earlier. The investigation turns very complex - involving missing girls and a Chinese legendary Monkey King. Very rich and complex story with clues that slowly all come together as events unfold. Very satisfying

Gerritsen is a little over the top with this one. I enjoyed it, but prefer what I feel is her forte; more believable medical/cop thriller. The Silent Girl enters the realm of fantasy more than I care for.

I love the Rizzoli and Isles series and I was thrilled to get to meet Tess Geritsen at a book signing for this book. While I liked this book something was missing for me. There wasn't a lot of suspence for me. No edge of my seat unable to put the book down. I like the story, I love the Monkey King, and I liked the setting, but it was so different from the other stories in this series that it just didn't satisfy me. There was little of Maura in this story and I think I missed the friendship eleme

Tess Gerritsen continues to thrill readers with her latest addition to the Rizzoli and Isles series. Jane Rizzoli is her usual risk-taking, puzzle-solving wonder with this puzzle containing elements of the ancient Chinese legend known as the Monkey King. As usual, a maze of connections must be made, this time between a murdered professional hit woman, a Chinese martial arts woman, cold cases of missing teen girls, and a 19-year-old restaurant murder scene. As Jane peels back the layers, she plac

This was had many layers of complexity that I have no idea where Tess Gerritsen even began! I could tell that it was well-researched and also very personal for her. The story became odder and odder as I turned the pages but as I reached the end; everything fell into place. For a moment there I thought that she had included a supernatural element to her story but she always offers an explanation at the end. I loved the change of scenery, the new characters and the Chinese background as the centra

In this tenth entry in the Rizzoli and Isles mystery series, Gerritson continues to develop her characters, especially Detective Barry Frost. Great smart suspense.
One of Gerritsen's best. I loved finding out about Boston's Chinatown. Rizzoli and Isles are my favorite characters.
