Negative Positive
Title: Her newest and most depressing book
Review: As a Patricia Cornwell fan, I have anxiously awaited the arrival of each publication. When "Point of Origin" was released I could not wait to get my hands on it. After reading it I could not help but wonder what is going on in Conwell's life that would motivate her to write such a depressing, dark, disturbing novel. Kay Scarpetta is at odds with every character in the book. She seems at odds even with herself! The plot is grisly and graphic, not lightened with any humor or levity - a downward ghastly sprial. The book held my interest but left a bad taste in my mouth. I personally don't know why Kay was in fear of Carrie. If my life was that depressing, I would have welcomed the relief.
