CAUSE of DEATH by PATRICIA CORNWELL

This book was given to me by my father who got it off of his book shelf, "Here's a good one for you to read."

So I brought it home and read it. It was different. But it was good to read.

Here was a murder that kept you wondering at all the what, where, and why of events and how to connect them before the author did it for you. Dr. Kay Scarpetta is the main character. She is a medical examiner. It's cold and you can feel it seeping through her bones as she peers at ones brutally attacked and murdered below water or above ground. Are these two killings connected? If so, how? Two very different people with two very different life styles.

And she knows both of them.

What was the reason behind their deaths? Is it possible they were on the same track? Was a religious fanatical group involved? Political? Would it be the end of the world as she knew it?

Tread lightly and be careful or it'll blow up in your face, Kay.
