Today they will find her body. I know how it will happen. I can picture
quite vividly
the sequence of events that will lead to the discovery... In Boston

instead of saving lives
takes them. But as homicide detective Thomas Moore and his partner Jane Rizzoli begin their investigation
they make a startling discovery. Closely linked to these killings is Catherine Cordell

and where she lives. The man she believes she killed seems to be stalking her once again
and this time he knows exactly where to find her...
