Jane Rizzoli, the terrific detective character created by Tess Gerritsen, is back in the second Rizzoli & Isles book. Beginning a year after the resolution of The Surgeon, Rizzoli is tormented by a copycat killer. At first, she's the only one who sees the parallels, including an FBI agent who arrives uninvited. The autopsy work by Dr. Isles proves her right, and puts her in danger.
Rizzoli is a complex and troubled woman, struggling for acceptance in a male-dominated profession. She feels forced to deal with her fears and doubts alone, in spite of offers of help from friends. Ms. Gerritsen has crafted another excellent mystery, including her trademark medical knowledge. Tense, fast-paced, and well written. Five stars all the way.
I couldn't help but pick up The Apprentice this week. I read The Surgeon which is the first book in the Rizzoli & Isles series last week, and I was just craving more of Tess Gerritsen's characters.
The Apprentice takes place a year after Warren Hoyt was caught and sent to prison. But a series of murders (by an unsub nicknamed the Dominator) suggests that Hoyt might have a partner out there. Rizzoli is the lead detective on this case, but FBI agent Gabriel Dean “crashes” her case, and she has to work in partnership with him. Dean seems to know a lot more about this perp than he admits, and Rizzoli doesn't trust him.

Not as good as The Surgeon but an interesting and exciting read still. Definitely looking to read the rest of the series!
Great crime novel, hope the rest of the series are like this. Starting to like the Rizzoli character more
