Book Reviews of Body Farm

Book Review: Interesting and satisfying reading
Summary: 3 Stars

Even being a little boring sometimes, this is one of Patricia Cornwell's best book. It is written in a very interesting, cold-blooded way fans of the genre love to read. Besides, it's also one that Kay Scapetta, the former detective on Cornwell's books, has her better way of searching for clues and findind the truth.

What's interesting in Patricia Cornwell's writing and being specific, in this book, is how deep things are described. Although Her style is the kind that describes every spot of blood, it's not terrible because you are always portraited to the scene of the crime, you feel as if you were there, with all the policemen and detectives... And, even without describe the characters much, Patricia Cornwell has an adorabl way of giving insights into the lives of her characters, and they are just like everyone, with the happiness and the problems.

Read a book by Patricia Cornwell is always a pleasure - full of aches and pains, but it's good to take the risk - , and, even not being a reading as great as a story full of what you could expect, Patricia knows exactly how to give the reader all we could expect from this kind of book. She's a master with what she does.

Summary of Body Farm

"The Body Farm" is a remote facility in the foothills of Virginia where a team of experts assess how bodies deteriorate in various conditions. Dr Kay Scarpetta needs their knowledge when asked to investigate a girl's murder. She needs to establish not only how she died, but where.
New York Times bestselling author Patricia Cornwell brings back Kay Scarpetta, consulting forensic pathologist for the FBI's Behavioral Science Unit, in her grittiest and most compelling novel. In rural North Carolina, the brutal murder of eleven-year-old Emily Steiner has shaken a small town. But more disturbing are the details of the crimes, chillingly reminiscent of the handiwork of a serial killer who has eluded the unit for years. Into this volatile atmosphere comes Scarpetta's ingenious, rebellious niece Lucy, an FBI intern with a promising future in Quantico's computer engineering facility--until she is accused of a shocking security violation. While coming to terms with Lucy, Kay must conduct a grisly forensic investigation at a clandestine research facility in Tennessee known as the Body Farm. There she will find more answers to Emily Steiner's murder--and evidence that paints a picture of a crime more horrifying than she imagined . . .
