Still Life With Crows
by Douglas Preston
3.5 out of 5. At the end of the day, the individual books in this series turn on the case at hand - and while this was certainly an interesting one, it didn't really draw me in like Cabinet or even Relic. There was something a little too ungrounded - not the eventual reveal, not even the experience of solving the case, but rather a sense that the authors left this somewhat more lightly sketched. There are things that wrapped up too simply and 'surprisingly' where they could've been a little more genuine and innovative. But then again, I might be wrong: this book might, in fact, be about introducing Corrie and developing Pendergast much further as a character. Either way, it was still a fun read.
