I generallly like Patricia Cornwell but this one wasn't one of her better ones. The story dragged and then seemed to have ended abruptly. I thought maybe I was missing another CD. I wonder if she actually wrote this or was it a ghost writer?

A compelling listen about "The Sandman," a killer we know has served in Iraq and come to know as connected to various characters in the story. There was a lot going on in the non-forensic story line with Marino, Lucy, Benton, and Rose, which I enjoy more than the autopsy details. If your favorite part of a Scarpetta story is the "science" you might feel like it's somewhat missing here. Although the main mystery is solved, there is a cliffhanger ending.

I believe this is one of the best Scarpetta novels to date. It was well produced and the reader (sorry, forgot her name and the book is at home right now) was excellent. She did different voices for each character, which I enjoyed.
