Tess Gerritsen

Bestselling author Tess Gerritsen is also a physician. Her thrillers starring homicide detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles inspired the hit TV series Rizzoli & Isles. But Tess's interests span far more than medicine and crime. As an anthropology student at Stanford University, she catalogued centuries-old human remains and she continues to travel the world, driven by her fascination with ancient cultures and bizarre natural phenomena. She resides in Maine.
