What I Am Reading #2
Rizzoli and Isles. It became a show on TNT last season and I could not wait to see it being a fan of the novels who created the namesake characters. These characters where created lovingly and with great care by the romance novelist turned Thriller writer Tess Gerritsen. TNT took their names and reworked them making them a pastiche of what is popular at the moment and totally raping the memory of great characters.
I have long since stopped watching the show, but await with anticipation for the latest installment of the novel. ICE COLD was published earlier this year, and is a follow up to last years Keepsake. This novel involves the heroines being seperated for most of the book and one is presumed dead. The first half takes Isles to a conference half the country away where she gets invovled with a ski trip gone awry and a weird cult. While it did not have the cerebral kick that Keepsake had, it was a good thriller that will grab you early on and does not fail to surprise you and take you for a ride. In a good way. I would highly recommend this book, as all of her others in this series.
