Title: The new leader in satire!
Product review: I loved it! Patricia Cornwell's departure from her straight thrillers has been a wonderful experience. Her satire is somewhere between Kurt Vonnegut, Jr and the tv show "Picket Fences". As a social worker, who works with kids like Smoke and like Weed, I find her information surprisingly accurate, in all details. Because of the incredible accuracy with which she portrays the issues of youth and violence, I would almost be tempted to call this a "message book". "Southern Cross" is a very worthwhile read, but stay away from it if you have no sense of humor and are unwilling to get one!
