What this book is about
D.D. Warren wakes from her recent injury to discover she has developed a rare condition: she can no longer feel pain. While she's still recovering, a killer begins targeting women and surgically removing their skin — and the crimes seem connected to D.D. herself. A woman with the same condition appears in her orbit. Lisa Gardner builds her most technically horrifying D.D. Warren novel around a protagonist who cannot receive the body's most basic warning signal.
