Helpful Score: 1


Like many of the reviewers I've read here, I'm a big fan of the Scarpetta novels. I found some of the later KS books to be more action/thriller-like than mystery-like. Predator has a different tone, the story is told from a broader perspective, vs. the KS-centered earlier novels; the shifting perspectives of the narrative were interesting to me, and kept me guessing. The book does have some pretty violent/gruesome themes, but there was some interesting psychological play - as in, the story plays some games on the reader, and packs some surprises.
