Livid ~ Kay Scarpetta #26 (by Patricia Cornwell)

Well, after reading this book and the next one in the series, Unnatural Death, I am through with Kay Scarpetta. I had stopped reading her books for a while but tried giving them a try again a few years ago. Unfortunately, the characters are irritating, the story line was blasé, I couldn’t stay invested in the story and just didn’t care what happened. The way the prosecuting attorney treats Kay on the witness stand at the beginning of the book was appalling. This would not be allowed in real life and was such a turn off. To be honest, I could not find anything about the book that redeemed itself. That makes me sad because I was such a huge Kay Scarpetta fan with the earlier books and was so looking forward to getting back to the nitty gritty moments experienced while reading those earlier books.
