Perhaps 4.5 stars.
I had no idea about the culprit(s) and the last few chapters flew past me. I have some unanswered questions and I hope there's a discussion of this book somewhere on goodreads.
If you have liked the previous Rizzoli & Isles books, I think you will really like this one, as I did. I'm sad to see there's only one more book in this series. I'll have to look for Tess Gerritsen's other books and hope for more of Jane Rizzoli and Maura Isles.

I don't know what led Gerritsen to choose Rizzoli as the main character in the series (didn't even know there was a series till I pic ...more

I may be slightly biased in my review of this novel because I am a huge fan of Tess Gerritsen and have read all of her work.
This novel is the latest in the Rizzoli and Isles series and starts with the brutal murders of three foster families. The only survivors are three children who appear, at first glance, to have no connection whatsoever. The only thing that appears to link them is the fact that their biological families were murdered in the same week leaving only the children as survivors.

-"Je hebt gelijk, Teddy," zei ze."Je kent met niet. Ik ben een rechercheur van de politie. Maar ik wil je wel degelijk helpen." "Niemand kan me helpen.""Ik wel. Ik zal je helpen.""Dan gaat u ook dood." Zijn stem klonk toonloos en de woorden bezorgden Jane koude rillingen. Dan gaat u ook dood. Ze draaide haar hoofd naar de jongen. Hij keek niet naar haar.Hij staarde treurig voor zich uit, alsof hij een hopeloze toekomst zag.- (pg. 41)

Excellent book. The best thing in mystery novels is that you're kept guessing until the very end of it- and I did not see the twists until they happened. Very satisfied.
