(from the publisher): A nameless, beautiful woman appears to be just
another corpse in the morgue. An apparent suicide, she lies on a
gurney, awaiting the dissecting scalpel of medical examiner Maura
Isles. But when Maura unzips the body bag and looks down at the body,
she gets the fright of her life. The corpse opens its eyes.
Very much alive, the woman is rushed to the hospital, where with
shockingly cool precision, she murders a security guard and seizes
hostages . . . one of them a pregnant patient, Jane Rizzoli.
Who is this violent, desperate soul, and what does she want? As the
tense hours tick by, Maura joins forces with Jane's husband, FBI agent
Gabriel Dean, to track down the mysterious killer's identity. When
federal agents suddenly appear on the scene, Maura and Gabriel realize
that they are dealing with a case that goes far deeper than just an
ordinary hostage crisis.
Only Jane, trapped with the armed madwoman, holds the key to the mystery. And only she can solve it--if she survives the night.
