“There are many forensic experts. There are many writers.
Rarely, however, do the two meld as seamlessly and
synergistically as Lisa Black.”—Sacramento Book Review “She
is, quite simply, one of the best storytellers around.”—Tess
Gerritsen A former forensic scientist with the Cleveland
coroner’s office, Lisa Black knows the world she writes
about, as she has proven in the past with her gripping
thrillers featuring Theresa MacLean (Takeover, Evidence of
Murder, Trail of Blood). With Defensive Wounds, Black
delivers possibly her most sensational crime fiction
masterwork to date—a stunning tale of forensic expert
MacLean’s investigation into the brutal murder of a criminal
defense attorney at a Cleveland convention that reveals the
frightening presence of a serial killer prowling the city.
The forensic police thriller remains one of the most popular
sub-genres in contemporary mystery fiction, and Defensive
Wounds once again proves that Lisa Black is one of the “big
guns,” in the top tier alongside Patricia Cornwell, Kathy
Reichs, Jefferson Bass, and Michael Connelly.
