Resumen del Editor

For the second time in his short life, Teddy Clock has survived a massacre. Two years ago, he barely escaped when his entire family was slaughtered. Now, at 14, in a hideous echo of the past, Teddy is the lone survivor of his foster family’s mass murder. Orphaned once more, the traumatized teenager has nowhere to turn - until the Boston PD puts Detective Jane Rizzoli on the case. Determined to protect this young man, Jane discovers that what seemed like a coincidence is instead just one horrifying part of a relentless killer’s merciless mission.

Jane spirits Teddy to the exclusive Evensong boarding school, a sanctuary where young victims of violent crime learn the secrets and skills of survival in a dangerous world. But even behind locked gates, and surrounded by acres of sheltering Maine wilderness, Jane fears that Evensong’s mysterious benefactors aren’t the only ones watching. When strange blood-splattered dolls are found dangling from a tree, Jane knows that her instincts are dead on. And when she learns of Will Yablonski and Claire Ward, students whose tragic pasts bear a shocking resemblance to Teddy’s, it becomes chillingly clear that a circling predator has more than one victim in mind.

Joining forces with her trusted partner, medical examiner Maura Isles, Jane is determined to keep these orphans safe from harm. But an unspeakable secret dooms the children’s fate - unless Jane and Maura can finally put an end to an obsessed killer’s twisted quest.

THE ENDING, LOVE CONQUERS ALL.

Any additional comments?

USE YOUR CREDIT HERE, A GREAT MYSTERY AND A GREAT THRILLER. I HAVE FOUND FEW BOOKS THAT CAN DO BOTH IN ONE BOOK.

Last to Die

Any additional comments?

Last to Die is narrated by Tanya Eby and approximately 10.5 hours of listening. Three tweens are victims, their parents, siblings, and foster parents all die in fires or automobile accidents or are mysteriously assassinated. Why? What do they have in common? Your initial impression is absolutely nothing! Why were these children saved? Thus is the mystery Rizzoli & Isles must solve.

Good story, albeit for my taste, a little longer than necessary. But, that’s just me. Tess Gerritsen has become one of my favorite authors. Every story has merit and I’ve enjoyed them all. Nice plot, interesting premise, well defined characters.

Tess Eby does a good job, you’ll enjoy the narration.

Looking forward to the next! Enjoy.

Awesome

As usual the story is wonderful.... I actually finished it on less done 24 hours could not put it down... Tess Gerritsen stories have always captivated me I don't think I'll ever ger bored 😄

Good for what it is

A little bit lightweight, but a good listen for a day of housework or some treadmill time. Takes a bit of getting used to if you, as I did, started with the T.V. show.

New thrill around every corner

Every new chapter led you around corners and into deeper depths of this mystery novel. Just when you thought you knew where a corridor led, you got a surprise popping out from a closet!

Edge of the seat thriller

Would you consider the audio edition of Last to Die to be better than the print version?

I did not read the print version.

What did you like best about this story?

Excellent plot, lots of twists and turns. It keeps you guessing as to what happens next.

What about Tanya Eby’s performance did you like?

Very good reader. She knows how to bring out the emotions.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

No extreme reaction but kept me glued to the speaker phones.

Any additional comments?

This is my first book by Tess Gerritsen. I will definitely try one of her other books.

What about Tanya Eby’s performance did you like?

Very beleiving

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Held my attention until the end. I really did not want it to end!

Any additional comments?

Tess Gerrison is a wonderful writer

Just okay.

This wasn't a waste of time, but I wouldn't recommend it. I didn't really enjoy the narrator. The finish of the story was anti-climatic to the rest, although there was one little twist that was satisfying.

Boston Accent????

Would you try another book from Tess Gerritsen and/or Tanya Eby?

I have read several of Tess G's books and enjoyed them. "Last to Die" was ok. Story was not quite believable and the narrator was just awful...My suggestion is just read the book and leave the accents to the locals. I am from SE Mass. and listening to the narrator trying to do a Boston accent was painful. She came out sounding like she was from Brooklyn NY.

Would you be willing to try another book from Tess Gerritsen? Why or why not?

Yes, usually her stories are very good.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Horrible accents and the voices of men....awful. Please just read the book or get more than one narrator if you want more character definition.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Most likely.

Good story

Kept me wanting to find out what would happen. Never dull, always a good story.
