The Mephisto Club (Rizzoli & Isles #6) by Tess Gerritesen

Unabridged Audiobook On Compact Disc
I listened to the unabridged audio version of The Mephisto Club (Rizzoli & Isles #6) by Tess Gerritesen and narrated by Kathe Mazur.

Listening time for The Mephisto Club (Rizzoli & Isles #6) by Tess Gerritesen is 11 hours, 14 minutes.

This is the first time I've read or listened to anything by Tess Gerritsen that I can recall. After listening to the unabridged audio version of The Mephisto Club, I'm sure it won't be the last time I read anything by Tess Gerritsen. I really enjoyed this novel immensely as it is well developed, well paced, and filled with interesting characters and plot design to keep one engaged from start to finish.

Kathe Mazur is also a really good narrator. I look forward to listening to her narrate other books in the future as well.

The following is a plot summary for The Mephisto Club (Rizzoli & Isles #6) by Tess Gerritesen from Audible:
Evil exists. Evil walks the streets. And evil has spawned a diabolical new disciple in this white-knuckle thriller from New York Times best-selling author Tess Gerritsen.
PECCAVI. The Latin word is scrawled in blood at the scene of a young woman's brutal murder: I HAVE SINNED. It's a chilling Christmas greeting for Boston medical examiner Maura Isles and Detective Jane Rizzoli, who swiftly link the victim to controversial celebrity psychiatrist Joyce O'Donnell, Jane's professional nemesis and a member of a sinister cabal called the Mephisto Club.
On top of Beacon Hill, the club's acolytes devote themselves to the analysis of evil: Can it be explained by science? Does it have a physical presence? Do demons walk the earth? Drawing on a wealth of dark historical data and mysterious religious symbolism, the Mephisto scholars aim to prove a startling theory: that Satan himself exists among us.
With the grisly appearance of a corpse on their doorstep, it's clear that someone, or something, is indeed prowling the city. The members of the club begin to fear the very subject of their study. Could this maniacal killer be one of their own, or have they inadvertently summoned an evil entity from the darkness?
Delving deep into the most baffling and unusual case of their careers, Maura and Jane embark on a terrifying journey to the very heart of evil, where they encounter a malevolent foe more dangerous than any they have ever faced...one whose work is only just beginning.
I am giving The Mephisto Club (Rizzoli & Isles #6) by Tess Gerritesen a rating of 4.5 stars out of 5 stars.

Until my next post, happy reading!!
