The precision of his methods suggests that he is a deranged man of medicine, prompting the Boston newspapers to dub him \"The Surgeon.\" Led by Detectives Thomas Moore and Jane Rizzoli, the cops must consult the victim of a nearly identical crime: Two years ago, Dr. Catherine Cordell fought back and filled an attacker before he could complete his assault. Now this new killer is re-creating, with chilling accuracy, the details of Cordell's ordeal. With every new murder he seems to be taunting her, cutting ever closer, from her hospital to her home. And neither Moore nor Rizzoli can protect Cordell from a ruthless hunter who somehow understands--and savors--the secret fears of every woman he kills. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003e\"[A] top-grade thriller . . .
