Dr. Kay Scarpetta is starting over with a unique private forensic pathology practice in Charleston, South Carolina. But in this thrilling #1 New York Times bestseller, her fresh start ushers in a string of murders more baffling—and terrifying—than any that have come before...

The Book of the Dead is the morgue log, the ledger in which all cases are entered by hand. For Kay Scarpetta, however, it is about to acquire a new meaning.

A sixteen-year-old tennis star, fresh from a tournament win Charleston, is found nude and mutilated near Piazza Navona in Rome. The body of an abused young boy is dumped in a desolate marsh. A woman is ritualistically murdered in her multimillion-dollar beach home. Meanwhile, in New England, problems with a prominent patient at a Harvard-affiliated psychiatric hospital begin to hint at interconnections among the deaths that are as hard to imagine as they are horrible.

Scarpetta has dealt with many brutal and unusual crimes before, but never has she seen a string of death like what she's facing now. Before she is through, that book of the dead will contain many names—and the pen may be poised to write her own...

It didn’t seem quite finished with some unanswered questions. Getting set up for the sequel.

Very compelling

This story was all over the place. It’s also getting darker and characters are also very angry. Didn’t like the dark and angry tone.

Hard to follow.

This is an interesting story with a twisted plot. It’s well written but very dark and depressing as everyone is either angry, a victim, crazy, or desperately unhappy.

Depressing

The repeated phrase of he, said she, said was frustrating and very repetitive, although could be in the actual book.

great listen!

I truly enjoy these characters and their ongoing stories. I don’t post spoilers, but I hope they all find their way.

Great story

I like this author but this particular book talked a lot about male arousal, fondling, sexual connotations. Even to the point of a drunken Moreno trying to rape Scarpetta ~ the details of sexual stimulation is not needed, the story could of been told and the characters ugly behavior could have been described with out the details. There was a lot of dialog that dragged on between doctors, that didn't lend to the story line. Very disappointed. I love the narrator.

Too much detail on Sexual stuff

This book pulled at my heart strings between the relationship of Dr. Scarpetta and Moreno. I don’t like it when they aren’t close friends. Great book though!

Many emotions!

The only thing that drove me crazy about this book was the fact that the narrator Kate Reading pronounced the name Lucious as Luscious. Luscious is the name of a stripper not a man's name. It's funny how something like that is similar to sand in your shoe. It is irritating.

Great Story

It's been a LOOOOOOONG build up, but this might be the storyline that finally breaks up our Merry Band of Death Investigators ... Hats off to Rose in this one, who has the best take on the fearless leader to date - paraphrasing: at a certain point, your selflessness becomes quite selfish! Yet again it's new locations (with some European consulting thrown in), but it's the same ole stuff that is dragging the team down: Everyone is obsessed with Kay and Lucy, no one can get over the sins and hurts from the past & everything is so interrelated to the point of being utterly ridiculous. But - at the end of the day, isn't that what we now expect from Scarpetta & Company? Keep 'em coming ...

Our Merry Band Might be Broken

I am really enjoying this series and it is a series not just a stand alone book I find that the author make’s character changes or out right changes previous events to fit her new storyline. One thing is how abruptly she flies into new storyline without smoothly transitioning from the previous and leaving things up in the air like what happened to all the previous companies and characters in them “Rudy” and T-Un for example and her English Bulldog Billy these seem like small things but really aren’t for continuities sake.

Jumping story too much
