In Wyoming for a medical conference, Boston medical examiner Maura Isles joins a group of friends on a spur-of-the-moment ski trip. But when their SUV stalls on a snow-choked mountain road, they’re stranded with no help in sight.
As night falls, the group seeks refuge from the blizzard in the remote village of Kingdom Come, where twelve eerily identical houses stand dark and abandoned. Something terrible has happened in Kingdom Come: Meals sit untouched on tables, cars are still parked in garages. The town’s previous residents seem to have vanished into thin air, but footprints in the snow betray the presence of someone who still lurks in the cold darkness—someone who is watching Maura and her friends.
Days later, Boston homicide detective Jane Rizzoli receives the grim news that Maura’s charred body has been found in a mountain ravine. Shocked and grieving, Jane is determined to learn what happened to her friend. The investigation plunges Jane into the twisted history of Kingdom Come, where a gruesome discovery lies buried beneath the snow. As horrifying revelations come to light, Jane closes in on an enemy both powerful and merciless—and the chilling truth about Maura’s fate.

Oh, too bad. I love this author, but I am beginning to think, she, like so many other authors, were so much better at the beginning of their careers when it is tougher to get published. Maybe some just can slack off a bit once they star publishing a book or 2 a year.
ReplyDeleteI know. I really enjoy her books, too. I wonder is she will ever write a new series with new characters?
ReplyDeleteSounds like I should check out her earlier books. Thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely check out her earlier books. They are really smart medical mysteries.
ReplyDeleteOh that IS too bad. Well I'm still looking forward to reading it, hopefully I'll be able to stick with it the whole way through!
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed the show tho, have you watched it?
