Gerritsen, Tess. Body Double. Random House. New York. 2004.

Sometimes, the rush of life catches one on and then long, rambling stories will no longer suffice. One wants a rush of adrenaline in reading...something that will make one sit up and say, 'Aah, now that was interesting'. Body Double was a story of suspense..plenty of unexpected twists and turns...characters too are unexpectedly real...the fears and anxieties are real...Murders may not be the order of the day in one's life as they happen in Dr.Isles' life. But, her search for identity is something that one can relate to well. Her acceptance of what she is, is also something that one can accept without reservation.
The breath is held in suspense many a time and Tess must know that her reader felt that the book was thrilling enough to have at her side through meals, TV shows and soemtimes, once or twice, through cooking.
