For untold years, the perfectly preserved mummy had lain forgotten in the dusty basement of Boston's Crispin Museum. Dubbed "Madam X" the recently rediscovered mummy is, to all appearances, an ancient Egyptian artifact. But medical examiner Maura Isles discovers a macabre message hidden within the corpse - horrifying proof that this "century-old" relic is instead a modern-day murder victim. When the grisly remains of two other women are found, it becomes clear to Maura and Boston homicide detective Jane Rizzoli that a maniac is at large. Now Maura and Jane must unravel a murderer's twisted endgame before the Archeology killer adds another chilling artifact to his monstrous collection.

A good read, full with archeological and scientific details, that are rather interesting, even if the plot itself is rather far-fetched and made up. The end is very much "Jefferey Deaver", when Gerritsen tries to mislead us about the read identity, however it is rather clear, that her lead cannot be right.
Also the love stories between Maura and her priest as well as Frost and his wife are a little bit boring and also not too realistic - at least the one between Maura and Daniel Brophy.
Anyhow, a quick read and I am looking forward to reading the next Tess Gerritsen.
