Katherine Cordell is a very successful, confident and very attractive woman. ⠀
But few people guess what it costs Katherine to maintain this external calmness and self-confidence. ⠀
Two years ago, she became a victim of a maniac. ⠀
By a fluke, Catherine managed to free herself and shoot the culprit.
After a while, the killings resume. ⠀
Three women are killed one after another. All of them are united by characteristic features: a dissected trachea and a removed uterus. ⠀
Someone is copying the style of a murdered criminal. ⠀
He enters houses at night and silently enters the bedrooms of women who, awakening from their sleep, find themselves in a revived nightmare. ⠀
From what he does with his victims, it can be assumed that he is closely acquainted with medicine, and the newspapermen give him the nickname Surgeon.
Detectives Thomas Moore and Jane Rizzoli are investigating this case and gradually come to the conclusion that the key to all these crimes is Catherine Cordell.
The plot of the novel is thought out to the smallest detail. This is a book about proud, strong and courageous women. It is their steadfastness that the author puts in the foreground. ⠀
The work of hospitals, doctors, all kinds of laboratory tests are described in detail. ⠀
In my opinion, the novel draws out precisely the medical bias.
The story is told not only on behalf of detectives, but also on behalf of a maniac. ⠀
Some moments are stereotyped, but overall the plot is fascinating and gripping. ⠀
This is the first book in a series of detective thrillers about Jane Rizzoli and Maura Isles. I'm getting down to the second part.
