Evil exists. Evil walks the streets. And evil has spawned a diabolical new disciple in this white-knuckle thriller from New York Times bestselling author Tess Gerritsen.PECCAVIThe Latin word is scrawled in blood at the scene of a young woman’s brutal murder: I HAVE SINNED. It’s a chilling Christmas greeting for Boston medical examiner Maura Isles and Detective Jane Rizzoli, who swiftly link the victim to controversial celebrity psychiatrist Joyce O’Donnell–Jane’s professional nemesis and member of a sinister cabal called the Mephisto Club.On top of Beacon Hill, the club’s acolytes devote themselves to the analysis of evil: Can it be explained by science? Does it have a physical presence? Do demons walk the earth? Drawing on a wealth of dark historical data and mysterious religious symbolism, the Mephisto scholars aim to prove a startling theory: that Satan himself exists among us. With the grisly appearance of a corpse on their doorstep, it’s clear that someone–or something–is indeed prowling the city. The members of the club begin to fear the very subject of their study. Could this maniacal killer be one of their own–or have they inadvertently summoned an evil entity from the darkness? Delving deep into the most baffling and unusual case of their careers, Maura and Jane embark on a terrifying journey to the very heart of evil, where they encounter a malevolent foe more dangerous than any they have ever faced . . . one whose work is only just beginning.From the Hardcover edition.
【醫學驚悚天后】泰絲.格里森Tess Gerritsen
出生於加州聖地牙哥。母親是第一代華人移民,擁有華裔血統的她從小就喜歡窩在電影院看驚悚片,因而培養出她對黑暗主題的興趣,並反映在她後來撰寫的小說中。
泰絲畢業於名校史丹佛大學,而後繼續深造,最後取得加州大學舊金山分校醫學博士學位,於夏威夷檀香山展開她繁忙的內科醫師生涯。熱愛寫作的她,結婚生子後為了照顧兩個幼兒減少工作量,並開始嘗試寫作。
一九九五年對泰絲的寫作生涯是重要的轉捩點,在經紀人的鼓勵下,泰絲把自身的醫學背景寫進小說中,結果隔年出版的《貝納德的墮落》(Harvest)大受歡迎,讓「泰絲.格里森」這個名字首度躍居《紐約時報》暢銷排行榜。從此她專攻結合醫學和犯罪的醫學驚悚小說,迄今又出了十餘本書,本本暢銷,更創作出波士頓法醫莫拉.艾爾思和女警探珍.瑞卓利聯手辦案的系列小說。
