"Kay Scarpetta books can be intense and grisly and I have read all but Trace. This one however did not have the same quality as others. The plot was confusing and not as believable as Cornwell's other books in the series. I enjoy the characters of the Scarpetta books: Kay Scarpetta, Marino, Benton and Lucy but in this one even the usual great character development was not as sharp."
"The usual crew and storylines but an underlying drama of Lucy and her gay promiscuity causing huge security risks and the ongoing falling apart - body, mind,soul, of poor old Pete the caricatured overweight, outwardly aggressive but a nice guy underneath etc etc cop! I must have been reading too many of these Scarpetta novels in one go as I now keep getting previous book plots and characters mixed up with the latest one I'm reading - definitely a time for a change in book choice and maybe leave the last 2 (or 3?) Scarpettas till much later and maybe I'll enjoy them more then."
"This was my first experience of Patricia Cornwell and I only picked it up at the library because my mum thought they were good and also because I am interested in forensic patholofy and forensic science in general. I thought this book was interesting in that typical CSI kinda way. I like the 'situations' that Marino produced I thought they were very clever.
However, I guessed the culprit from the beginning I think which I don't normally do in CSI, I don't knwo whether I just had my brain in gear that day or whether it was pretty obvious to everyone. I have read some of the reviews on here, and although have not read the others in this series I don't think this is a bad book. If this is classed as 'bad' then I will certainly be encouraged to read the others before it."
"I stopped reading this book mid way though and haven't picked up a Scarpetta book since. I realized that the books were leaving me feeling dirty somehow, and I didn't like the characters anymore. In fact, I disliked them. I loved, and looked forward to, the early Scarpetta books, so it was with real regret I stopped reading, but I couldn't go along for the ride anymore."
