1.0 out of 5 stars WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?, December 22, 1999

This book was just so silly. I was very displeased with this latest effort. I thought the women were silly and the men sillier. The whole cat and mouse with Andy and Viriginia was just boring. All of the men were silly and weak. The women were sad and lonely. I just didn't like this at all. I only read it in hopes that it would get better. If this had been the first novel by Cornwell that I read, I would not be going back for more. I have read all of her works and this is by far the worst.

I have read many of Patricia Cornwell's books, and have thoroughly enjoyed them all -- until now. Honestly, my impression of this book is that Ms. Cornwell had a publisher deadline to meet and had absolutely nothing to submit, so she threw this together. The first 3 or 4 chapters should have been a good indication to me that I didn't want to finish this book, but being familiar with her other work, I kept forging ahead, waiting for it to get better. It never did. In a review of a John Grisham book, I mentioned his character development was lacking compared to some of his other works. In this Cornwell book, there were no characters, only caricatures. The story line was unimaginative, and the most intelligent actor in the book was Deputy Chief West's CAT!

Animals thinking? Aw, come on. Stereotyped characters and a gothic romance? Patricia Cornwell, shame on you. I've come to expect better writing from you than this.
