The book was in perfect shape and it arrived within a short time period after it was ordered. This was a great seller to buy from.

This is new series (not Kay Scarpetta). Although the characters are interesting the story is short and not well developed.
Winston Garano is called out of forensics school to solve a decades old crime. His boss, Monique Lamont, is using the case to further her political career. Before he can even get started, strange events happen, followed by an act of violence. Politics, personal lives and crime are intertwined in this story.

The book was new and came promptly, but I was disappointed in it. I went back and reread Postmortem, her very first and I think probably her best work, and this one seemed like a diluted version of what have now become standard Cornwell characters and plot twists: the brilliant but disfunctional and often very self-destructive major female character, the dark side of relationships, conflict with the bureaucratic power structure, the last-minute rescue by a much verbally abused but surprisingly loyal underling. I know it was serialized, but that doesn't account for the thin texture, predictable plot, and meager character development. I wouldn't buy it again.

I was a fan of Cornwell from "postmortem" on. Every one of her books had plenty of merit. After reading this book I had to ask myself if the writer really was Patricia Cornwell. It's very amaturish, sounding like a cheap romance novel written by an unknown. It is that bad ! From a male investigator who buys designer clothes in a thrift store, to a female DA who buys designer clothes, well, that's about the gist of the story. Boring, pointles and a complete waste of time.
