Title: Point of Origin needs a destination!
Review: My first ( and probably last ) Cornwell novel. I mean, come on. First a big fire, affecting Kenneth Sparkes, who is quickly made a minor character. A bunch of horses die, but one survives, why? Never explained. The bad guy appears almost as an afterthought. And the scary "Carrie" doesn't even get any facetime with Scarpetta! After all that worrying. And her niece, Lucy, belongs in a superhero comic book; FBI/ATF agent, Computer genius, Helicopter pilot, foxy woman. Yeah, right. I think Cornwell wrote this book as she was taking flying lesson, since the helicopter seems to be the main ( and most believable ) character. Great dialog, weak plot, boring details, messy ending.
