Summary

In Richmond, Virginia, young lovers are dying. So far, four couples in the area have disappeared, only to be found months later as mutilated corpses.

When the daughter of the president's newest drug czar vanishes along with her boyfriend, Dr Kay Scarpetta knows time is short. Following a macabre trail of evidence that ties the present homicides to a grisly crime in the past, Kay must draw upon her own personal resources to track down a murderer who is as skilled at eliminating clues as Kay is at finding them.

Excellent characters

I love Kay Scarlett’s, a strong female character with ethics and feelings. I recommend this book.

Nice, easy listen, likable characters

Nice and easy to listen to. at the beginning I wasnt sure about the narration but it turned out to be great, really helped making this very interesting and gave life to the characters. I'm curious to hear more about Kay Scarpetta. Will be buying the other books on this series.

Interesting parallel ...

I am surprised no one noticed the parallels Cornwell made with her story to the Colonial Parkway Murders of 1986-1989. Whilst she changed places and a few circumstances, she wrote a fictional who done it on a factual real life serial murders that was never solved. This parallel kept me listening.
I have gotten used to the narrator's accents, although being from Tidewater now Hampton Roads area of Virginia, I am unfamiliar with the "old Virginian" accents she is portraying. She is portraying everyone in Virginia with the old "Southern Gentry" accent that just doesn't exist anymore.
Can't wait to get to book 4. I am re-reading or listening to the series after reading them when they were first publish.

Consistently Good

Patricia Cornwall will never let you down and her narrator, Lorelei King is perfect. I highly recommend, with the proviso that you start the series at book one. You will then really get to know the main characters fully over the years the books cover.

good.

not one of my favorites by Patricia Cornwell, but the narrator did a very good job of separating the different characters so I could lay back and know who was talking thru her portrayal of each character. I've been a fan of Patricia Cornwell for many many years and this is one of her earlier books therefore I have read the ones beyond this story, so maybe that's why I didn't think this was excellent as ones I've read after. A good starting book for those who have read any books regarding Scarpetta.

Mediocre story with a rather anticlimactic end

The story was initially intriguing but soon lost its lustre with an ending which felt rushed.
