Title: just not up to her previous books
Review: Cornwell's earlier books were much better written than this one. I wish she would go back to the days when her books were based on real crimes committed in VA. Those were her best books. Also, her work needs better editing. There are typos throughout, and somebody from Richmond (i.e., Cornwell) should know how to spell Shockoe (NOT Shockhoe). Plot seemed contrived.
