Details

Description Pathologist Kay Scarpetta works freelance for the National Forensic Academy. Her team, which includes Pete Marino and Lucy Farinelli, faces a terrifying case. When they put a number of forensic puzzle pieces together, it points to a murderer with a brain as genius as he is criminal. Until now he has been able to do his thing in the shade. In a thriller that stretches from hot and humid Florida to snowy Boston, Patricia Cornwell proves once again that she is an author at a lonely height. PREDATOR has a masterfully constructed plot and a shocking denouement. Review (s) UN Detective & Thriller Guide There is no shortage of oddities in the 14th Kay Scarpetta thriller. The title comes from a scientific research project into murderers' brains. Furthermore, the necessary corpses are cut open and there is even an SM scene with dominant spiders. But all this cannot hide the fact that Cornwell is getting fed up with her protagonist. Why not leave that really boring shit of a Kay for what she is and start something else: Forensic subjects enough! But that is probably not allowed by her publisher. Rating: 2 stars (Source: UN Detective & Thriller Guide 2006)
