Book Six


Patricia Cornwell
BOOK OF THE DEAD
Penguin Books - 2007

Kay Scarpetta is another one of those characters who lives and breathes through the author's writing ... and though the storyline is important ... what is happening in the lives of the central characters - Kay, Marino, Benton and Lucy - is just as important. Cornwell always delivers what she promises - human interest, gore and madness, shivers, magical technology through Lucy's gadgets and gizmos ...

" One of those details we may never know," Benton says. "People don't tell the truth. After a while, they don't even know it."
