Title: Very Disappointing
Product review: I have been a huge Kay Scarpetta/Patricia Cornwell fan from the beginning. However, this latest book fell flat. The reader never gets any answers to the one murder Scarpetta is supposed to solve, other than who did it and we basically knew that in the beginning. She threw strange plot lines in that not only didn't add to the story but were distracting and created questions that went unanswered. The book never even explained why the killer chose his victims - only why he was going after his "big target." There was an entire chapter devoted to an encounter with Marino and the grieving mother that started to appear to provide the answer as to why the victim was chosen, but again nothing - it was just dropped. The ending was abrupt and left all the sub-plots unresolved. The ending almost seemed as if she got tired of writing and just stopped. Killer caught - book over. I really hope the future books will be like her originals. Otherwise, I'll be moving on to other authors.
