Review title: This book is garbage
Product review: This is the first Scarpetta novel I've read since Cruel and Unusual several years ago. It stinks. The plot is totally implausible, and none of the characters is developed to any degree. I felt as if all of the important action (with one major exception about halfway through) happened before the book began or offstage. In addition, Cornwell seems to have got into the habit of suffusing every scene between two women with erotic tension. Yet even that theme, if it is one, goes nowhere.Cornwell was either under incredible time pressure when she wrote this or has become sick of her characters. Her editor should have sent this one back.
