“This is classic Scarpetta, complimented by the assistance of her brilliant -- and sometimes frustating risk-taking niece Lucy. Named for the facility founded by eminent forensic anthropoligist William Bass of the University of Tennessee, this is a fascinating glimpse into a real-world facility. Art imitating life. Either way, it's a great read.”

“I thought the book would provide some detail on the actual Body Farm, part of the University of Tennessee...forensic medicine. It was a quick read and okay, but the title definitely doesn't fit the book.”

This author has written other crime novels and I hope to read another in the future.”
