A review by km_allan
Postmortem by Patricia Cornwell

4.0

Dr Kay Scarpetta faces off with a serial killer who is going after single women and leaving behind a mysterious glittery substance. There’s lots of medical talk, scientific talk, computer talk, and just general talking in this book. As it’s from 1994, most of the DNA science is outdated now, but that doesn’t stop the story from being interesting. I’m not completely on board with the prickly Scarpetta character yet, but Cornwell’s writing style, her red herrings, and villain reveals (which I didn't guess until the end) kept me interested and reading, so I will be checking out more of her books in the future, and recommend this one to anyone who likes forensic thrillers.
