Tess Gerritsen left a successful practice as an internist to raise her children and concentrate on her writing. She gained nationwide acclaim for her first novel of medical suspense, the New York Times bestseller Harvest. She is also the author of the bestsellers Life Support, Bloodstream, Gravity, and The Surgeon. Tess lives with her family in Maine.
Because of the anticipated publicity for TNT’s new TV show, “Rizzoli & Isles,” Ballantine has decided to move up my publication date a full month earlier, to June 29. Mark it on your calendars!
Awesome! Will there be book trailers/commercials during the show? I will definitely put this on my list of books coming out this year.
April, I think there’ll be a book trailer advertisement on the TV show — but it’s only going to be 15 seconds so don’t blink or you might miss it!
Congratulations on the moved up date. That seems to be unheard of these days in publishing.
Hi Tess, presumably this only applies to the USA? Amazon.co.uk has publication date down as 27 July. If that changes please will you mention it? I hope Rizzoli & Isles makes it to the UK one day too.
I’m not yet sure what will happen in the UK. Publishing dates are fluid, and Transworld may also move up their date as well. I’ll keep you posted!
This is great news! I’ve been so looking forward to this.

Woohoo!!!! I now know exactly what I’m going to be doing the evening of June 29.
Cool! Congratulations. If I order it right away on the 29th, it might just be delivered in time for my birthday! It would be nice to get a signed copy though…
Hi Tess,
Seriously should consider doing your book tour Down Under, including New Zealand
The Kiwis would be happy to host you..
Congrats on the book!

Sabrina,
I’d love to head Down Under — in fact, I should be visiting Australia in 2011 on book tour!
I totally love to hear that! Thank you for writing such amazing books
You also should come to Germany some time, I bet there are loads of us who’d love to see you doing your book tour!
I’m confused. Your homepage has what appears to be two different books displayed, “Ice Cold” and “The Killing Place.” The latter has “the latest Isles and Rizzoli” on the cover, but this string refers to “Ice Cold” as being the latest Isles and Rizzoli novel. What gives? What about the reference to five people stranded in a blizzard? That seems to point to the “Ice Cold” release. Please clear up my confusion. Thanks.
Is it possible that “Ice Cold” is the name of the book in the U.S., and that the release of the same book in the U.K. will be titled “The Killing Place?”
