This is the third in the Kay Scarpetta series, and is another great forensic/police procedural. It had the same elements as her earlier two books, although the political element was a lot more convincing and worked well into the plot line.
I was happy to find there was less time spent on the romance with the FBI character Mark, and I enjoyed seeing Marino pick up his act and give himself a makeover.
I would have liked more of an insight into the killer; however, it was a good ending and I look forward to the next in the series.
My rating = ***
Carpe Librum!
