No one does it quite like Tess Gerritsen!

A physician herself who's worked in emergency rooms and on autopsies, the medical scenes are as authentic as they are frightening. All her books are unputdownable, and this one is no exception - especially as it poses the most terrifying question of all: how would you feel if forced to watch your own autopsy?

This is the situation that Maura Isles must confront as she begins a personal journey that reveals far more about her own past and family background than she thought possible.
