More of the same. Dedicated "with love to Barbara Bush". The way Scarpetta keeps oggling her naked niece's body gets more and more disturbing, esp. since I doubt Cornwell will make a real f/f incest case out of this.

Dedicated "with love to Barbara Bush". The way Scarpetta keeps oggling her naked niece's body gets more and more disturbing, esp. since I doubt Cornwell will make a real f/f incest case out of this. Poor Benton has his "still surprisingly supple" body dutifully admired, and pale feet like her niece.
The blurb as usual proclaims not only that she does it best and has bad imitators, but that this one is "her best and bleakest" (don't get up my hopes - or maybe that just means the guy will die (to resurrect later)) and praises the "sinister atmosphere ... cool prose" = as usual the most puzzling thing about this series. Could she be so famous for political reasons? At least it's quick to skim through.

ETA: 100 pages left to go, so a little about the "plot": we're back with Temple Gault! You thought she finally killed off that least threatening, most boring serial killer of all, but there's still his partner, who is similarly off-screen, has similarly inexplicable superduperhumannatural capabilities that enable her to work from inside prisons and across states in no time and with no money - where was I? Oh, yes, and Kay is so very scared and terrorised again because Claire is as much a scourge as Temple was *yawn* and so she makes a few extra-flights to run after her niece for no reason other than the descriptions of banal manual tasks hadn't filled enough pages yet. The "death" of Benton was of course only a paragraph but will duly be revisited as the trauma of her life, see all past novels. The FBI for the first time ever gets gently criticised, with disclaimers all around, indicating again her political involvement (I have no interest in finding out who took over the FBI when). The only one of her many personal-political opinions I thought good was the case of a child dying because it's parents were against medicine because god heals, but that was also gently done because - fitting with her politics - KS is more and more religious.

There are less things to quote this time, so I will later add the pertinent lines - ignoring all the insane comparisons and semantically wrong conversations (just the sun bouncing like a manic child with her ball, no "his voice was as muscular as his body" this time, and I'm focussing on the interpersonal).

But for now, just this: I actually threw back my head and laughed out loud at the ... well, perhaps it was meant a horrifying, tragic ending, but it was all too much: first the only other murders KS hadn't cleared yet were retconned to Carrie's new partner, who has nearly as stupid a name as Temple Gault but whose motive was that he had bad acne. Not. Kidding! And then, after spending the whole book talking about the ever absent Carrie as "the monster" and "evil", Kay and Lucy *shakes with sad hilarity* get into a helicopter battle with them ... *cracks up again* ow ow ow. Sob?(less)

It turns out that it does. This one takes place about seven years or more before Trace, but I was happy to see all the main characters again ... until one got killed. This shook me up not so much because of the death of a character as because that same character had been very much alive in Trace. I wondered if this were another case of an author killing a character off but then being forced by the clamor of readers tgo bring the character back, somehow, and I thought I would check on the Internet to see if there were any comment. I found LOTS of comment, particularly at a site at which a blogging journalist vented his spleen at Patricia Cornwell, declaring that she had become trite and was pandering to the editors and that he was not going to read her anymore.

I don't feel that way, myself, but I think I might make a more serious effort to read the series in correct sequence, from this point on, as it is interesting to watch the characters change and mature, and to see what the author does with them.

Point Of Origin is set at a time when Kay Scarpetta has been Pennsylvania's Chief Medical Officer for twelve years, two years after she had moved into the big new office building she had forced the politicians into constructing, and she has just received a threatening letter from one of her old enemies, Carrie Grethen, who used to be a lover of Kay's extraordinary niece, Lucy; the letter frightens her, even though Carrie has spent the past five years locked up in a mental institution for the criminally insane. In her role as a member of the Bureau of Alcohold, Tobacco, and Firearms' National Response Team, Kay and Pete Marino, the obsteporous police captain who provides Falstaff-like humor in this series, are called to go check out a fire that has burned down the mansion and stable of Kenneth Sparkes, a media star who has not been kind to Kay in the past. And this is just the first few pages of the book! There is a spoiler in the publisher's introductory paragraph on the flyleaf, which tells us that Carrie is involved in that very same fire, but we do not actually find that out in the book until halfway through the book, when Carrie escapes from the prison and Kay's lover, Benton Wesley, gets called back into the FBI to help track her down; meanwhile, Cornwell is busy bringing Kay through several subplots, including interaction with a whacko far-right religious couple whose child had died after they declined to allow conventional medical treatment, involvement with Lucy's new boss, the search for related fire deaths, and the always interesting accounts of how different people respond to autopsies.

I sometimes wonder if my fondness for the Scarpetta series has anything to do with the fact that I used to work in a funeral home and participated in many autopsies. The real reason for the fondness, however, is that Patricia Cornwell is an excellent writer, whose plots are interestingly complex and whose characters are the same. I enjoy seeing how they react to each other and learn from experience (another basic reason for reading the series in the proper order, I suppose), and I also enjoy seeing how the author experiments with style and method. This book, for example, is standard first-person past tense, whereas Trace is third-person present tense; I see that not as a mark of the writer's disability, as the comments in the aforementioned critical blog contended, but as a sign of the author's enhanced strength as a writer. The point is that Cornwell writes compassionate tales of people involved in intellectual and emotional struggles in such a way as to cause me to keep turning the pages and not wanting to put the book down; what more can a reader ask?(less)

This book is what I consider the last good Scarpetta novel; all the books that follow it (The Last Precinct, Blowfly, Predator, et al) are hardly worth the paper they're printed on.

The plot centers on the suspected arson of a media magnate's home which resulted in the death of one female and several prize horses. A new villain enters the picture (Newton Joyce), and he's aided by serial killer Carrie Grethen, newly escaped from prison. There's a subplot involving Benton Wesley, Scarp...more

Recently someone handed me a bag of paperbacks and asked if I wanted to borrow them. Well, of course, I did. But I answered without really looking. And when I did look, I noticed that approximately 6 of the 8 books were Jodi Picoult. And those’ll be great in a week or so when I get on a plane, but in the meantime I needed something else. It was the middle of the night—no bookstore or library open—so I picked one of the non-Picoult’s: Patricia Cornwell’s Point of Origin.

I listened to this on tape, and I had a horrible time staying interested in the story. I think that Patricia Cornwell really lost it about this point in her writing career. I finally gave up 1/3 of the way through the book, and I will not be reading any more of her books. I was getting sick of the characters and the plots!

Number Nine in the Series. Ok, you've read a series of mystery books before. Is it ever a good idea when the same serial killer shows up for the third time (at least)? And the killer just happens to be the former lover of the lesbian niece? Desperation thy name is Cornwell.

A thought that came to me during Unnatural Exposure happened in this novel. The case of the limbless torsos continues in this story. The basis for this story is arson and charred bodies. Lucy has quit the FBI and Wesley has retired. Pete Marino continues his unhealthy life style of booze, cigarettes, and greasy foods. Luckily in this story, no worker in the morgue is killed. In Cornwell's usual style, arson and helicopter flying are thoroughly explained. Maybe I need to cease reading Corn...more

I think at the end of this book I finally figured out the one issue I have with Cornwell's books. Through the first 90% of the books the solution to the crime is a mystery, you are thrown through loops and twists that keep you guessing...and then the problem happens. Most of the time the final ten to twenty pages wraps up the book and often times that seems like way way to quick of a wrap up. The characters have been through so much and it's usually Dr. Scarpetta who suddenly has an epiphany ...more

It wasn't as thrilling as I hoped, but it could be because I hadn't read this series's book 5 & 6, or...? The most part of the book went on under the fear of Carrie Grethen, along with mysterious arson cases. Because I don't know how this woman was supposed to be a scary intelligent psycho, it didn't do much trick on me. After 4/5th of the story passed, then it finally got interesting. In some way, I can say it was predictable and too obvious. When I put like this, I feel I love reading gruesome...more

Basically, I have come to the conclusion that the author is writing about herself. However, in real life, she's not a forensic scientist like author Robin Cook who is an MD and writes mysteries involving doctors. It just seems that through her writing the author has the ability to turn herself into this character and that I'm reading about her. This is just my personal opinion and doesn't take away from the writing of the book or even enhance the review. It's just an observation. But I believe it takes a special talent to live another life through the pages of a book. If everyone could do that, we would be very lucky.

Back to the story--before it begins, the author warns us that the story contains gruesome details and one of her main characters will be killed off. I don't remember an author ever posting a warning like that in the beginning of a book and wonder why she did it.

There has been a terrible fire. Twenty beautiful horses have been burned alive. Their owner may be in the house that was burned down. However, a woman's body is found in the house, and the owner was a single man. Who is the woman? And where's the man?

Kay Scarpetta, forensic investigator, is helping the ATF and FBI with a forensic fire investigation where there has been a homicide and suspected arson.

It turns out that there's a serial killer out there who may have an accomplice, an escaped mental patient named Carrie, who is out to take revenge on Scarpetta and her FBI niece.

All the people who are killed are beautiful and why is that? How did the killer meet them? How did the killer connect with Carrie who was in a guarded facility? What main character gets killed and what is the killer's motive for the killings?

The woman who writes these books is an impeccable researcher and like I said I think she is the main character in the book without being that character in real life. Except for the fact that real life murderers have tried to cover their despicable and dirty deeds with fire, the story itself seems far-fetched. I live in Dayton and we've had a few arson murders happen in the last six months. The most notable one involving Marine Marie Lauterback (misspelled, I'm sure) whose charred body and that of her unborn infant were found in a fire pit in another Marine's back yard. The investigators determined that she was hit in the head with a blunt force instrument. What a gruesome and horrible case to investigate.

But this book was like going to the state fair versus the county fair. At the state fair, there are even more things to see and do. And at a theme park, it's even bigger where there are better and faster rides. Sometimes all that better and better stuff can be just a little much. Like entertainment overload.

Whether the story is far-fetched or not, the forensic investigation is fascinating. Kay Scarpetta discovers that the serial killer has been on a multi-year, multi-continent killing spree and that the killing itself is as grisly as the killer in Silence of the Lambs.(less)

Following graduation from Davidson College in 1979, she began working at the Charlotte Observer, rapidly advancing from listing television programs to writing feature articles to covering the police beat. She won an investigative reporting award from the North Carolina Press Association for a series of articles on prostitution and crime in downtown Charlotte.

Her award-winning biography of Ruth Bell Graham, A Time for Remembering, was published in 1983. From 1984 to 1990, she worked as a technical writer and a computer analyst at the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Richmond, Virginia.

Cornwell’s first crime novel, Postmortem, was published by Scribner’s in 1990. Initially rejected by seven major publishing houses, it became the first novel to win the Edgar, Creasey, Anthony, and Macavity Awards as well as the French Prix du Roman d’Aventure in a single year. In Postmortem, Cornwell introduced Dr. Kay Scarpetta as the intrepid Chief Medical Examiner of the Commonwealth of Virginia. In 1999, Dr. Scarpetta herself won the Sherlock Award for best detective created by an American author.

Following the success of her first novel, Cornwell has written a series of bestsellers featuring Kay Scarpetta, her detective sidekick Pete Marino and her brilliant and unpredictable niece, Lucy Farinelli, including: Body of Evidence (1991); All That Remains (1992); Cruel and Unusual (1993), which won Britain’s prestigious Gold Dagger Award for the year’s best crime novel; The Body Farm (1994); From Potter’s Field (1995); Cause of Death (1996); Unnatural Exposure (1997); Point of Origin (1998); Black Notice (1999); The Last Precinct (2000); Blow Fly (2003); Trace (2004); Predator (2005); Book of the Dead (2007), which won the 2008 Galaxy British

Book Awards’ Books Direct Crime Thriller of the Year, making Cornwell the first American ever to win this award; Scarpetta (2008); The Scarpetta Factor (2009); and Port Mortuary (2010). In 2011 Cornwell was awarded the Medal of Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters, one of France’s most prestigious awards to honor those who have distinguished themselves in the domains of art or literature, or by their contribution to the development of culture in France and throughout the world.

In addition to the Scarpetta novels, she has written three best-selling books featuring Andy Brazil: Hornet’s Nest (1996), Southern Cross (1998) and Isle of Dogs (2001); two cook books: Scarpetta’s Winter Table (1998) and Food to Die For (2001); and a children’s book: Life’s Little Fable (1999). In 1997, Cornwell updated A Time for Remembering, which was reissued as Ruth, A Portrait: The Story of Ruth Bell Graham. Intrigued by Scotland Yard’s John Grieve’s observation that no one had ever tried to use modern forensic evidence to solve the murders committed by Jack the Ripper, Cornwell began her own investigation of the serial killer’s crimes. In Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper—Case Closed (2002), she narrates her discovery of compelling evidence to indict the famous artist Walter Sickert as the Ripper.

In January 2006, the New York Times Magazine began a 15-week serialization of At Risk, featuring Massachusetts State Police investigator Win Garano and his boss, district attorney Monique Lamont. Its sequel, The Front, was serialized in the London Times in the spring of 2008. Both novellas were subsequently published as books and promptly optioned for adaptation by Lifetime Television Network, starring Daniel Sunjata and Andie MacDowell. The films made their debut in April 2010.

In April 2009, Fox acquired the film rights to the Scarpetta novels, featuring Angelina Jolie as Dr. Kay Scarpetta. Cornwell herself wrote and co-produced the movie ATF for ABC.
