Title: Wish I'd read the reviews before I bought this disaster!
Product review: I have thoroughly enjoyed the Kay Scarpetta series, and usually can't wait for the next one. This one, sadly, should just never have been written. I could only struggle through the first two chapters before I decided it just wasn't worth the effort, and I gave the book away (to an unsuspecting friend!) Why, oh why has the author decided to write in this stilted, distracting third person POV..."Kay Scarpetta did this, Scarpetta says that?" It's annoying and awkward, and I really can't enjoy the book having Cornwell tell us what Kay is doing and thinking, rather than "hearing" it first person as Kay tells us. Don't waste your time reading this, just spend your time lamenting the loss of a great character and a great series.
