REVIEWS:
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES: "There's no denying the power of Gerritsen's storytelling. Vanish is a perfect example of the best-selling thriller: action-packed, entertaining and compulsively readable."
SAN JOSE MERCURY: "Tess Gerritsen, the reigning champion of the medical thriller, throws one twist after another until the excitement is almost unbearable."
BOOKLIST: "Gerritsen fans know by now what to expect from her: a fascinating story with a gripping plot and believably human characters."
PROVIDENCE JOURNAL: "Gerritsen has long shown far more versatility than she’s given credit for… and in Playing with Fire, she proves herself a virtuoso… every word hitting just the right note in one of the best and most original thrillers of the year.”
SUNDAY TELEGRAPH (London): Chills, gore and creepy characters abound in this satisfying and emotionally complex outing from one of the most popular thriller writers at work today." (The Keepsake)
BOSTON GLOBE: "You're in the hands of a master plotter. Body Double is suspense at its best with surprises right up to the final pages."
HARTFORD BOOKS EXAMINER: “Though some series grow stunted with age, Rizzoli & Isles continue to evolve gracefully …Don’t be surprised if you find yourselves helpless to resist the author’s many charms.” (Die Again)
KIRKUS: “Mystery lovers not familiar with the author’s work should brace themselves, because they might trip over a bucket of entrails. But they will also find a terrific storyteller.” (starred review.) (Die Again)
SOUTH CHINA MORNING POST: "Gerritsen is the real deal - clever, thoughtful, twisty and full of surprises."
THE MERCURY (South Africa): "Tess Gerritsen is a master of intrigue, always delivering that tricky twist in the tale and in Ice Cold, she does it with gusto. You'll feel the biting cold, the unbearable tension and the gripping fear as you gobble up the pages."
COURIER MAIL (Australia): "Whenever a new Gerritsen title appears on the shelves I must own it immediately, and then inflict the bedside lamplight on my wife into the wee hours until I've finally finished."
THE EXPRESS (UK:) BARRY FORSHAW: "In Gerritsen novels, things are seldom what they seem -- and that's very much the case here. The author pulls no punches when it comes to confronting the most extreme and disturbing outer reaches of human behaviour, and "those of a nervous disposition" should take care. But we Gerritsen fans are a hardy breed, and this scarifying novel delivers everything we go to her for."
UK GUARDIAN: "Only American writers seem to be able to pull off this kind of hair-raising, nail-biting stuff that maintains its momentum and credibility to the very last page. ... I was kept guessing right up to the very end." (Vanish)
SUNDAY STAR-TIMES (Auckland): "Gerritsen is peerless, and Vanish is the kind of book you'll read until your eyes burn."
CHICAGO TRIBUNE: "She has an imagination that allows her to conjure up depths of human behavior so dark and frightening that she makes Edgar Allan Poe and HP Lovecraft seem like goody-two-shoes... In Gerritsen's cool, capable hands, even the bleakest horrors can be probed and eventually explained."
