Another somewhat disappointing read, only because i had such high expectations. So many people have recommended this author to me, but i had so many issues with this book! I don't know if it was because of the era it was written, or just Cornwell's personal tastes or her writing ability but this boo...

I actually prefer the later books to the early books. I think her writing got stronger. Mariano was so unlikeable in the early books.

31/3 - Another great Scarpetta story. I haven't read this one as often as Postmortem, so I don't remember the complete story like I do with Postmortem. As I'm reading a new detail of the plot will come to me just a page or two before I read it. Instead of anticipating each twist and turn of the p...

I continue to expect more forensic pathology from this author.

I really like the Kay Scarpetta series so far. They are quick and easy while still being detailed and enjoyable. I enjoy the missing link or the missing clue that has shown up in this series. Cornwell has had her characters struggle to find a way for the murders to be happening rather than just focu...

I really enjoyed this mystery. Kay Scarpetta is such an empathetic character, yet tough and willing to take risks. Cornwell weaves a web that is almost impossible to untangle until she takes it down piece by piece. I thought I had the whole thing figured out in the 2nd chapter. I love how she fi...

The heroine is Dr. Kay Scarpetta, the Chief Medical Examiner in Virginia. Oh, no, you say, another Ouincv. Wrong, corpse-breath. Scarpetta is intelligent, short, (we don't know whether she is attractive or not, a relief) and she doesn't swoon over each drooling Sylvester Stallone imitation that happ...

I liked Kay but I want her to be more emotional.
