Trace

De: Patricia Cornwell

Narrado por: Kate Reading

Dr. Kay Scarpetta, now freelancing from south Florida, returns to the city that turned its back on her five years ago.

Richmond, Virginia’s recently appointed chief medical examiner claims that he needs Scarpetta’s help to solve a perplexing crime. When she arrives, however, Scarpetta finds that nothing is as she expected: her former lab is in the final stages of demolition; the inept chief
isn’t the one who requested her after all; her old assistant chief has developed personal problems that he won’t reveal; and a glamorous FBI agent, whom Scarpetta dislikes instantly, meddles with the case.

Deprived of assistance from colleagues Benton and Lucy, who are embroiled in what first appears to be an unrelated attempted rape by a stalker, Scarpetta is faced with investigating the death of a fourteen-year-old girl, working with the smallest pieces of evidence—traces
that only the most thorough hunters can identify. She must follow the twisting leads and track the strange details in order to make the dead speak—and to reveal the sad truth that may be more than even she can bear …©2004 Cornwell Entertainment, Inc. (P)2004 Penguin Audio

Great book

I love the Scarlett’s series! I listen on Audible and out of the Three readers for this series thus far, Kate Reading is my absolute favorite!

Story was good

Narrator was good, I could recognize the characters by the readers voice. Story was interesting!

newcomer

My sister started me on this new journey..I recently have eye issues so this is a great way of getting lost in a story. I love reading but I am sure I will get to love audible books just as much.

Scarpetta

I like that the readers.try to change their voices to match the characters BUT sometimes it doesn't quite make it. I'd rather the voices be from different people, esp if the reader wants to act it out.

Need more action...but a compelling story.

I like this narrator. The story line was interesting and I like how Cornwell ties in Scarpetta's past. I'm glad Benton is back, Scarpetta was getting a little depressing without him.

I do wish there was more action, I know Scarpetta's getting older but we still got Lucy and gang. The end was a bit abrupt but I am glad Marino got some glory this time. Ready to get t9 the next one!
