Review title: Sorely Disappointed
Product review: I have been a fan of Cornwell and Scarpetta for a long time, and was just dying for something new! I couldn't possibly have been more diappointed. All the classic mistakes, she would start going in an intersting direction then plod on to something that was out in left field and not even pertinent. I knew it was useless when I had 20 pages left and the story had more unanswered questions than answered ones...and I didn't care. She rushed the ending, seriously wrapping up one of the most interesting pieces of the story in one and a half pages, possibly trying to make it a cliff hanger, but definitely missing the mark. I had no interest or caring for any of the main characters or what was happening to them, and Scarpetta was a washed out bland, version of herself. Patricia Cornwell's style of writing is still as good as ever, but this book lacked substance and is well beneath her ability. I agree with the other review, I wish I could get my $22 back and read the paperback.
