The Keepsake by Tess Gerritsen


I really enjoyed the next book in the Rizzoli and Isles series called the Keepsake. When a mummy is discovered in the back stockroom of a museum, Isles attends the X-ray scan of her, Madame X. However, the mummy isn't an artifact, but a murder victim of a twisted new serial killer that's obsessed with preservation. In addition to the mummy, there are victims found including a tsantsa, which is a shrunken head, and a "bog body." Intertwined in the story is the investigation of Dr. Josephine Pulcillo, a young archaeologist hired by the museum, who seems to have something to hide including her real name. Pulcillo then disappears and Rizzoli must find her before she becomes another victim of the preservation killer. This story has great twists and turns and is one of my favorites in the series as well.... it's just so hard to pick!
