Bland and not intriguing
This novel could’ve been made much more interesting and intriguing by the author had she made Catherine Cordell as the serial killer in this pierce of work. Now that would be some eye opening suspense for the readers.

Scary, full of suspense but with a cliche ending.
The story build up was spectacular and the writing bone chilling. However, I associate this book with GOT. The climax is a huge disappointment. The suspense could have been better broken and the cliche ending could have been definitely avoided. But the book does take your mind into deep wells of fear.

Not just your average procedural
Remarkably fewer generic clichés per page than most crime writers ....
Refreshingly ambiguous and ambivalent characterization.
Critiques patriarchy intelligently without needing to sanctify female characters.
A real pleasure.

Not for me
Didn't enjoy this. Too long winded and a little too graphic that added nothing to the story

Good but not great
This is a fairly standard murder mystery thriller. Serial killer outwits cops who don't follow some fairly obvious leads. One woman cop who is bullied but stands up for herself. Etc. Etc.
I will say that the characters in this had more flaws and moral depth than in your standard thriller and once the story got going 2-3 hours in it really picked up and by the end was quite compelling. I do think it could have been trimmed a bit by the editor but it was ok.
The narration was very quiet though. On all my devices I had to dial the volume up quite a few notches from what I would expect on normal audiobooks. This wasn't great when I switched from audiobook to car radio for the news.
Fair warning as well, in this book Rizzoli is a co-star and Isles doesn't yet exist. I haven't seen more than a few episodes of the TV series but I still found it a bit odd for the first book in a series called "Rizzoli & Isles".

the gory descriptions got in the way
I found it hard to keep picking it u p.. The too graphic descriptions clouded what was a decent storyline, almost like showing off the authors medical knowledge. I did finish over a long period, hard to go back too, and got more pleasure from the last few chapters. not sure I could ever recommend other than strong stomachs.. good standard of writing so stick to what you do best.

Not Bad
This book isn’t a bad listen. Not the best but not the worst. Rizzoli is a bit of a wanka. I found her hard to like. Will get the 2nd book but if she doesn’t get a better attitude I won’t continue. Angry women are boring and common.
