- The Body Farm
This is the 5th in Cornwell's acclaimed Kay Scarpetta series and it is just as good as the first 4 amazing books in the series.
Scarpetta is investigating the death of school girl Emily Steiner and she begins to think that her old nemisis Temple Gault may have struck again. Meanwhile she has to deal with her neice Lucy being accused of stealing highly classified information from the FBI.
Cornwell is a master in the genre and binds the threads of her characters tightly and keeps the reader hooked.
I'll definately be reading the next book in the series and I hope Cornwell keeps up this high standard.

- Really Good
This is the second book I have read by Cornwell and also the second in this series. I really enjoyed it and thought it was actually better then the previous one I read (Cruel and Unusual I think). I defo will be reading the rest of this series.

Cornwell does it again. Another trip into the horrors of forensic pathology, with a smattering of the main characters' private lives thrown in, in a way that accentuates the story rather than turning it into a soap. You will have to read the rest now, then all of them again, in order! Great Stuff!

Being number five in the series of Dr Kay Scarpetta novels, any fan would now be enjoying not only the excellent individual storylines of these books, but also enjoying the connecting themes that run through the series.

**Possible Spoilers**

Firstly again Scarpetta has undergone a major personal change since the last book that doesn't seem to be totally covered. At the end of the previous book, Cruel and Unusual, she was planning to work more closely with FBI Profiler Benton Wesley and then this books starts with her not only working with him but embarking on an affair with him also. Whilst I don't question the possibility of this ... Read More:

- The best Scarpetta Novel by far
I loved this book more than any of the other Scarpetta novels. It is just so fast paced and keeps you on the edge of your seat all the way through wondering who's the goody / baddy and you learn a lot about forensic science along the way. Very informative and a fab you won't be able to put it down read.
