Flesh and Blood by Patricia Cornwell Book Tour, Book Review

Flesh and Blood

Patricia Cornwell

on Tour August 2015




Synopsis:

cover
It’s Dr. Kay Scarpetta’s birthday, and she’s about to head to Miami for a vacation with Benton Wesley, her FBI profiler husband, when she notices seven pennies on a wall behind their Cambridge house. Is this a kids’ game? If so, why are all of the coins dated 1981 and so shiny they could be newly minted? Her cellphone rings, and Detective Pete Marino tells her there’s been a homicide five minutes away. A high school music teacher has been shot with uncanny precision as he unloaded groceries from his car. No one has heard or seen a thing.
In this 22nd Scarpetta novel, the master forensic sleuth finds herself in the unsettling pursuit of a serial sniper who leaves no incriminating evidence except fragments of copper. The shots seem impossible, yet they are so perfect they cause instant death. The victims appear to have had nothing in common, and there is no pattern to indicate where the killer will strike next. First New Jersey, then Massachusetts, and then the murky depths off the coast of South Florida, where Scarpetta investigates a shipwreck, looking for answers that only she can discover and analyze. And it is there that she comes face to face with shocking evidence that implicates her techno genius niece, Lucy, Scarpetta’s own flesh and blood.

  My review;

Almost everyone who reads mysteries knows about Dr. Kay Scarpetta and the author of the fantasic novels about her, Patricia Cornwell. This book is named "Flesh and Blood" because it actually includes information that makes her own relative look like a suspect. I think that author Patricia Cornwell has an unbelievable way of writing a story, weaving the clues, and surprising the reader. I really liked this story. This is her 22nd novel about Dr. Scarpetta and it is just as good as the first book in the series. Patricia Cornwell's books are fantastic. I give this book a 5/5.  I wish I could go higher. I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions a re my own.

  1. I read most of the early books in the series but somehow got sidetracked. Will definitely get back into the series with this latest, though!
