    I gave this book and the series to my local library to clear my shelves for other things I like. Although I like Cornwell and the Scarpetta Novels, it gets old after a while and I wouldn't read them more than once.

    This book was absolutely awful. I would not pass it on to anyone.

    I think this is a pretty fairly decent book from her, though I've heard mixed reviews from others. This took me about a week and is a good new series to read.

    Cornwell weaves her story of corruption that escalates to murder. Hammer is brought in to clean up the police department. Hammer finds that they do not like her stirring-up trouble. All of this is played out in front of the public. There are to many sub characters that take away from the story.

    The plan was to read Masie Dobbs for this tag but after I read Hornet's nest for the Crime tag, I really wanted to pick up Southern Cross as it's the sequel to Hornet's nest. I like Hornet's nest better than Southern Cross. This book seems a little bit disjointed to me, a bit all over the place kinda feeling.

    After the death of her husband, Chief Hammer decided to throw herself into work and has came up with a proposition to spend 12 months with state police departments who are 'in shambles' to shape them up. The first department to benefit is Richmond, Virginia. Hammer brought along 2 assistants namely Deputy Chief West & Andy Brazil. Unfortunately, things just were not working well for them. How do they tackle the Fishteria virus which disabled their network and the escalating violence in relation to the ATM robberies? And how do these things relate to each other?

    I don't remember much about this book except that I really did NOT like it. It was most definitely the worst thing Patricia Cornwell has written that I've read. I do remember lots of crudeness and vulgarity that didn't even seem to go along with the story very well.

    This excursion away from her Kay Scarpetta series was not particularly successful, in my opinion.
