Detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles
are back—and they’re going into the wild to find a killer.
Die Again is the latest heart-pounding thriller in
Tess Gerritsen’s New York Times bestselling series,
the inspiration behind TNT’s hit show Rizzoli &
Isles.
When Boston homicide detective Jane Rizzoli and medical
examiner Maura Isles are summoned to a crime scene, they
find a killing worthy of the most ferocious beast—right
down to the claw marks on the corpse. But only the most
sinister human hands could have left renowned big-game
hunter and taxidermist Leon Gott gruesomely displayed like
the once-proud animals whose heads adorn his walls. Did
Gott unwittingly awaken a predator more dangerous than any
he’s ever hunted?
Maura fears that this isn’t the killer’s first slaughter,
and that it won’t be the last. After linking the crime to
a
series of unsolved homicides in wilderness areas across
the
country, she wonders if the answers might actually be
found
in a remote corner of Africa.
Six years earlier, a group of tourists on safari fell prey
to a killer in their midst. Marooned deep in the bush of
Botswana, with no means of communication and nothing but a
rifle-toting guide for protection, the terrified tourists
desperately hoped for rescue before their worst
instincts—or the wild animals prowling in the shadows—
could
tear them apart. But the deadliest predator was already
among them, and within a week, he walked away with the
blood of all but one of them on his hands.
Now this killer has chosen Boston as his new hunting
ground, and Rizzoli and Isles must find a way to lure him
out of the shadows and into a cage. Even if it means
dangling the bait no hunter can resist: the one victim who
got away.
