Title: REALLY DISAPPOINTING
Product review: Such a disappointment. Not even in the same ballpark as the Scarpetta novels. It is quite evident that the Scarpetta series is something that Patricia Cornwell knows inside and out. However, this was not the case in Southern Cross. It was hokey and read clumsily (if that is a word) for about the first two thirds of the book. It is glaringly apparent that gangs are not Patricia's strong point and really should be left alone. I imagine she may get tired of Kay Scarpetta at times, but it is TRULY what she is a master of. I wait breathlessly for each new installment and am crushed when I run out of pages. Then I run to the bookstore to see if they have any idea when the next installment is going to be released. The thrill of the wait is never anticlimactic. Patricia - stick with what you know. It comes from your heart.
