Is The Mephisto Club Worth Reading?
Ada’s Score
Tess Gerritsen's The Mephisto Club plunges Boston detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles into a case involving ritualistic murder and a shadowy group convinced that evil is a literal, ancient force. When a body is found on Christmas Eve bearing disturbing symbols, Rizzoli and Isles are drawn into a world of occult believers with dangerous enemies. Gerritsen blends psychological menace with forensic procedural detail in a propulsive thriller that never lets its foot off the gas. One of the strongest entries in a criminally underappreciated series.
“Gerritsen is a master of dread — this one gets under your skin with its occult menace and sharp procedural edge.”
