Bestselling Crime novelist Tess Gerritsen has sold millions of books around the world. 

Her popular duo of homicide detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles are back after a five-year hiatus in her latest book Listen to Me

It's the 13th installment in the popular series, which was also made into the TV series "Rizzoli & Isles", which ran for seven seasons.

Tess Gerritsen started out as a doctor before becoming a crime writer and her knowledge of the scientific world is drawn on heavily in her writing.

But her interests stray further into music, anthropology, ancient worlds and natural phenomena.
