Book Review of The Scarpetta Factor (Kay Scarpetta, Bk 17)

The Scarpetta Factor (Kay Scarpetta, Bk 17)

I swear, each new installment in the Scarpetta series reveals the characters to be even more twisted and depressing than the last. This book to me felt like Cornwell was floundering for a topic so she just rehashed old characters and dredged up old history. As I finished the book, it almost felt to me that she was preparing to wrap up loose ends and finish the series.

I keep picking up the latest book in this series, always in hopes that she'll return to writing the tight plots and intense stories and I keep being disappointed.
