This has been my favourite so far in the Kay Scarpetta series. The writing and characterisation found a comfortable space for each character - Lucy comes into her own and her journey is believable. The downfall of Scarpetta is a relief - to be out on her own will give her the space to explore crime on a wider scale.
Lorelei King's performance was, as always, perfection.
This book was long and detailed - so much so that as soon as I finished it I started it again. I felt as if perhaps I had missed something - I had not, but upon a second reading I felt as if I knew the story much better in preparation for the next in the series

Favourite So Far

I wasn’t sure about the lengthy emotional confessions from Scarpetta and her psychiatrist friend, Anna. I thought it was too much of a long confessional on Scarpetta’s part. I thought it went too far and put a pause in the story or interrupted the rhythm.

Apart from that the story was great. Creative, twisted and clever.

Part two; follows on from the previous book

I'm over people who can't do accents and read like they're robots! Totally wrecked the story and I lost interest! Just listened to the end so I got what happened. get another reader!

It's a good story orator terrible!
