So this was a short story, and as a short story it was good. A crime was commited, Rizzoli and Isles get the case, and Isles solves the case. Everything is wrapped up neatly. After the story, there was an excerpt from the next Rizzoli and Isles book. The excerpt was interesting, and made me want to read the book. Reading a short story was not as satisfying as reading a full book, but it was nice to read about familiar characters. (

A really enjoyable fast, fun, and super-quick read, with Jane Rizzoli and Maura Isles investigating the death of a teenage girl who appears to have been a vampire. (

I was a little disappointed in this short story. (

A very nice short story on the Rizzoli and Isles series. Freaks is a spooky story with some strange happenings. I enjoy when things get weird and then Dr. Isles explains it all away logically. (

So short it's barely even a short story, but I kind of liked these "freaks". (
