Twisted Path is the fourth novel in the series featuring Buddhist forensic pathologist Bodhi King and has the most scientific flavour of the four so far. When DNA from a convict are found on a crime scene, Bodhi finds himself investigating what appears to be an impossible anomaly. Without giving away too much of the story, fans of the series can expect to learn some mind blowing facts about DNA, thoroughly researched and presented by the author in her inimitable, accessible style. If the first half of the novel is perhaps a little slow and Bodhi’s presence a little scarce, it is worth persevering past the halfway point, when the pace picks up, leading to one of the most exciting final showdowns scenes of any of Miller’s books.
With Twisted Path, Melissa F. Miller has taken her forensic thriller series to a different level, with a story reminiscent of Patricia Cornwell’s early Scarpetta novels, when the science was new and exciting for both the main character and the reader themselves. I am now looking forward to “Cold Path” - the fifth novel in the series - even more.

This was an absolutely fantastic read, the way everything starts to fall into place and the story unfolds was addictive. Bohdi has his work cut out with this case where a killer already in jail appears to have struck again 7 years later and puts the original case in doubt and causes mistrust among those involved. This is actually the first Bohdi King novel I have read and will be going back to read the first 3 now!

Bodhi is asked to help on a case that seems impossible - the DNA of a man sitting in jail is found at a current crime scene. The man had killed the wife of the current victim many years ago, and Bodhi had worked on that case.
The book shows you parts of the original case, as well as detailing the present one, and allows you to understand what is actually happening, even before Bodhi and the others have figured it out.
Bodhi approaches everything with this logical mind, and a calmness I'm sure I would never have in these kinds of situations.
I read this book in one sitting, couldn't put it down!
