Title: Reaching for storylines
Review: I love the Kay Scarpetta novels, and have read all of them. The last few (this one included) seem to be reaching for storylines. There's always a "bad guy", other than the murderer the heroine is after. Someone within Scarpetta's office or within the police department who's out to get her. And all of these "bad guys" are so jealous of the world-famous Dr. Scarpetta. Come on! These story lines have little or nothing to do with the main theme of the book and really detract from the story. I, for one, preferred the earlier Scarpetta novels.
Is the review positive or negative?
