** spoiler alert ** After Cornwell's last few books, plus the Amazon review "situation" from the last book, I'm not sure I can take another Scarpetta book. I barely finished Book of the Dead...so I am reluctant for this book. Of course, I've said that for the last 4 of the series, so I'm sure I'll end up reading it.

***After trying to read***
I had to stop. i was half way through the book, and nothing happened except talking between Benton and the NYC DA, and Marino at a new job. Kay was examining a possible murder suspect. That took 200 pages. Not worth picking the book up, IMO. Scarpetta's days of yore are LONG since past.
