Another great story about Kay Scarpetta and other characters in her circle. There is more depth to all the characters as more personal information is revealed, Scarpetta has her private private set up in Charleston. Lucy is close to having the best forensic lab in the country. Marino is unhappy about leaving Florida; he dresses in leather and rides his hog everywhere even to see witnesses. Benton works in Boston so he and Kay still have a long distance relationship. However, Kay accepts a ring so maybe this will change. All of them become involved in finding a serial killer. A spiteful psychiatrist stirs up more hateful information to ruin lives. The head psychiatrist of Mclean's in Boston is sitting in Italy and being mysterious in all consultations with Benton who is trying to find a killer. The cop in Italy has an eye for Kay and Benton is jealous. Can things get more screwed up? Yep. Marino loses it!

I loved this book. But I like all of the Kay Scarpetta series. A must read for her fans.
