    An unidentified nude female sits propped against a fountain in Central Park. There are no signs of struggle. When Dr. Kay Scarpetta and her colleagues Benton Wesley and Pete Marino arrive on the scene, they instantly recognize the signature of serial killer Temple Brooks Gault. Scarpetta, on assignment with the FBI, visits the New York City morgue on Christmas morning, where she must use her forensic expertise to give a name to the nameless - a difficult task. But as she sorts through conflicting forensic clues, Gault claims his next victim.

    What made the experience of listening to From Potters Field the most enjoyable?

    I'm loving these Scarpetta books, and I've enjoyed listening to Critt's character choices.


    What about C. J. Critt’s performance did you like?

    She has kept the same characterizations from the first book until now, and it makes the books more realistic, as if we're listening to real relationships evolve. I saw someone complaining about her voice for Wesley, and that just seems like a negative negative Nancy thing to complain about.

    Sure he's not voiced like Mark was, but he is voiced like he always has been, which suits his personality. There are some actual human beings who fall in love with guys who chew their words and take life a little too seriously.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    I'm running through these books like water - I'm already dreading the end - of the series, and I believe a brand new book comes out soon!

    Would you listen to Storm Front again? Why?

    Butcher's books continue to get better and better as the series goes on. His stories are wonderful and captivating. The writing at times seems a little bit less than fantastic, but the stories are worth it, and the writing gets better with every book in the series.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Clearly Harry Dresden.


    Which character ??? as performed by James Marsters ??? was your favorite?

    Dresden.
