Review title: Disappointed, then Angry
Product review: This book is not simply a matter of the author not reproducing some of her early triumphs. The book's ending is so bad that I wondered whether the author just finished it off one night and whether a self-respecting editor ever saw the piece. The book as a whole was disappointing, due in part to a peculiar style that sometimes seems more like the brief notes that outline a book to be written, rather than the book itself, and partly because of the increasingly unsympathetic characters. Marino contributes nothing, but drinks a lot. The Benton character is absurb. Lucy's actions suggest that she has "lost it" in her darkness. And Scarpetta is often discussed from afar. Then come the last pages. I cannot remember another book that was concluded so poorly. What seemed disappointing ended up making me bad, because I felt that I had been cheated out of the book for which I had paid.
