The return of Rizzoli & Isles, a national best-seller! This "shocking and fast-paced" (Karin Slaughter) thriller by New York Times bestselling author Tess Gerritsen follows Jane and Maura as they investigate a violent murder with grave consequences. This time, however, Jane's intrepid mother, Angela, is pursuing a mystery of her own.

"An utter pleasure to keep readerly company with."-- The Times of New York

Moms are the wisest people... Who, however, will pay attention?

Jane Rizzoli, a Boston homicide investigator, and Maura Isles, a medical examiner, are now dealing with a seemingly senseless murder. In her own house, Sofia Suarez, a widow and nurse who was well-liked by all her neighbors, lay dead from a blowtorch. However, anything may occur in private, and Sofia seemed to have many secrets in her last days, including making surreptitious calls to burner phones that are untraceable. The case only becomes more hazy when Jane eventually establishes a link between Sofia and the victim of a hit-and-run that occurred months before. What precisely was Sofia doing? It is evident that the murderer would stop at nothing to protect their secret.

In the meanwhile, in all the years since her daughter became a murder investigator, Angela Rizzoli has never slept through the night. The fruit may not have fallen too far from the tree: Nothing in Angela's neighborhood escapes her notice—certainly not the weird new neighbors across the street or the rumors of a juvenile runaway down the block. In her quiet suburb, Angela is certain that coincidences don't exist. If only Jane would pay attention, rather than brushing Angela's worries off as the product of an overworked mind. However, Angela is certain that there is a genuine wolf nearby, and her warnings may now go unheeded.

Jane and Maura are already having trouble seeing the forest for the trees since there is so much going on with the Sofia case, but will they also miss something evil occurring much closer to home?
