This book is is basically is about a serial killer who is killing women in Boston. A lot of similar procedures were found with another serial killer, from another city, Savannah, but there isn’t another clue besides that. Furthermore, the Savannah’s serial killer was dead by one of his victims, whom survived. Catherine Cordell, the victim of the past, is the only possible clue that Thomas Moore and his partner, Jane Rizzoli, have against the murderer.

THE SURGEON is awesome! WOW! When you’re reading it, you lose your breathe in every page, in every new clue, in every new step of the killer and the police. The end is surprising. The serial killer’s intelligence is amazing. And so is his cruelty. You know, he doesn’t “just” kill the women. And it’s not any woman. He choose them carefully and finds pleasure in her suffering. The precision that he cuts, rips, tears – the still alive – bodies of the women is an unimaginable craziness.

For me, the most interesting thing was that the whole book is full of details. Every event is extremely detailed, from how the body was found until the process it passed to be like that. It’s brutal, but if you look only the medical part, it’s made with perfection, too.

Rating: 5 stars (of five) (Recommended by Raíla!)

Cinco estrelas, e como Raíla, recomendo fortemente! (Foi ela que me recomendou, e agora eu quero todos os outros livros!)

O livro é de 2001 e eu tenho a 6ª edição, desse ano. A tradução foi feita por Sylvio Gonçalves, e a publicação é da Editora Record.
