The Last Precinct (Kay Scarpetta) 391 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2001
The Last Precinct
+ It's About Change..
While thoroughly enjoying all Patricia Cornwell`s work and being an avid fan of Dr.Scarpetta I feel The Last Precinct is my favourite. It is a riveting story and we get a really great insight into what makes the Doctor tick following her time with her friend Dr. Anna Zenner who as a Psychiatrist ...

Point of Origin (Kay Scarpetta) 506 reviews Patricia Daniels Cornwell
Berkley, 1999
Stunning!
+ Fire and Forensics + A Great Book
Wow! I read this in 4 days! This starts with a casual feeling of vacation and ends in tradegy for Dr Kay. The web she is weaved into while unraveling this story is amazing and she is Cornwell portrays her as a strong woman, ready to seek revenge.
Cornwell's description of the scene's made me ...

Cause of Death (Kay Scarpetta) 136 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2007
I Disagree With the Negatives...
+ Fantastic! Cornwell is ahead of her time
I was just looking at the reviews for this book and couldn't believe I had read the same book that the previous reviewers have read. Perhaps it is because I have been reading all of the books of the series in order, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters and their relationships continue ...

Predator (Kay Scarpetta) 454 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2006
PREDATOR IS A FANTASTIC READ!
+ What's wrong with this book? + Predator
I just reread Predator to compare it to the more recent Book of the Dead by Cornwell. I absolutely loved Predator and have a feeling that the one star reviews from people on this board either 1) didn't get the point of the book, as it was a bit complex, or 2) are simply looking for some tired old ...

Blow Fly (Kay Scarpetta) 723 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2004
I thought it was good
I enjoyed Blow Fly. I know the perspective was different, but I thought it allowed the author to be able to step out from the characters and look on them from above. Thus, allowing for much more richness in the character development.

Black Notice 625 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2000
I Don't Get All of the Negativity Here...
+ Death In A Barrel
I just don't get all of the negative reviews here. I guess it is a good thing I don't read them first. I've been reading the Kay Scarpetta series in order, and find this book in some ways better than the previous ones. It is best if you have read Point of Origin first, and ideally all of the other ...

Hornet's Nest (Andy Brazil) 385 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 1998
Sense of Humor not optional
+ really intriguing character study . . .
I think a lot of people were expecting gritty suspense like the Scarpetta novels and didn't quite get that Patricia Cornwell wasn't just trying on new characters, but a whole new genre. She was being funny. If you're paying attention, the Virginia West books are MEANT to be outrageous and ...

Southern Cross 534 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 1999
Not your usual Cornwell!
I read the 3 Andy Brazil books against advice from more than one person. I wanted to see for myself if they really were that bad. I liked the Scarpetta books (although I thought that the endings of some of those books were too rushed, too contrived). The Andy Brazil books are nothing like those! ...

Trace 340 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2005
My first Patricia Cornwell
I'd never read a Patricia Cornwell before, but someone had recently recommended her books. So when I saw TRACE for sale, I bought it and read it.
The story was quite good. But there were so many holes, like "uh, did I miss something" where I guess that's her style that you're just supposed to ...

Portrait Of A Killer: Jack The Ripper -- Case Closed (Berkley True Crime) 601 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2003
An intriguing book
+ The Ripper unveiled, circumstantially
I had a hard time putting this book down. I found it entertaining. I did not see all the connections between Sickert and Jack the Ripper, but there are many. I do not know all the facts, but she certainly did alot of research. This case will never be fully closed until DNA testing gets better ...

Isle of Dogs (Andy Brazil) 736 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Berkley, 2002
This is an EXCELLENT book!
I don't understand the bad reviews others have given this book! I love all of Ms. Cornwell's books; this one is different, but hilariously funny. I laughed all through the story -- Andy Brazil's Trooper Truth musings, the Guv's submarine, and his wife's trivet collection... Very cleverly ...

Body of Evidence: A Scarpetta Novel (Kay Scarpetta) 78 reviews Patricia Cornwell
Pocket, 2004
Patricia, what can I say?
+ Wonderful + DR. SCARPETTA M.D.
Although Ms. Cornwell is wordy, and sometimes it's irritating, I feel she weaves quite a tale. This book is interesting and a definite page-turner, if only to bypass the descriptions and needless explainations for the nitty-gritty "that's what I read Cornwell for" stuff!!
I've read every book ...
