About this listen

Late one night Beryl Madison turns off her burglar alarm, puts down her gun and opens her door to the man who has stalked and terrorized her for months. Hours later, her brutally mutilated body lies in the city morgue. As Scarpetta begins searching for the microscopic clues to the killer’s identity, one question keeps nagging her: why did Beryl let him in?

I forgot it quickly

A lot of different characters to keep track of but you figure it out by the end and the story was well with the effort. Downloading next in the series but I think I’ll take notes. (-:

Great narration. Since it was written many years ago, you just have to forgive the need to find pay phones and land lines. The dated references didn't bother me at all and didn't detract from my enjoyment of the story. This m

I am all in on this series. It has been around for a while, but I thought I would start with book 1 and see if I liked it. Well, I am heading on to book 3! I recommend listening to this book.

I really enjoy the series. My favorite part is the relationship between Marino and Scarpetta. This storyline was just okay. Not as riveting as some of the others.

Storyline okay but love series
