Red Mist

Kay Scarpetta Mysteries, Book 19

De: Patricia Cornwell

Narrado por: Kate Burton

With high-tension suspense and cutting-edge technology, Patricia Cornwell—the world’s #1 bestselling crime writer—once again proves her exceptional ability to entertain and enthrall in this remarkable novel featuring chief medical examiner Dr. Kay Scarpetta.

On her quest to find out exactly what happened to her former deputy chief, Jack Fielding, murdered six months before, Scarpetta drives to the Georgia Prison for Women to meet a convicted sex offender and the mother of a vicious and diabolically brilliant killer. Against the advice of her FBI criminal intelligence agent husband, Benton Wesley, Scarpetta is determined to hear this woman out.

Scarpetta has both personal and professional reasons to learn more about a string of grisly killings: the murder of a Savannah family years earlier, a young woman on death row, and then other inexplicable deaths that begin to occur at a breathtaking pace. Driven by inner forces, Scarpetta discovers connections that compel her to conclude that what she thought ended with Fielding’s death and an attempt on her own life is only the beginning of something far more destructive: a terrifying terrain of conspiracy and potential terrorism on an international scale.

And she is the only one who can stop it.

Twisting details!

I loved the twist in this book! It kept me on my toes! Loved it!

Stop With the Mysic

Why on earth did they add music.. it adds nothing. downs out the narrator, it sucks lol. the story is great though. Always a fan of the Scarpetta series!

The story seemed to fall short

Didnt care for the ominous music they added. If i needed or wanted that, I'd watch TV.

Really Kay?

I'm loving Kate Burton's narration, but for the love of God please ditch the horrendously distracting music that sometimes cuts in at the end of chapters; it is not needed in any universe.

I was not prepared for Red Mist to be Part Two of Port Mortuary, since once I'm invested in a series, I don't read descriptions of the upcoming books, I just plunge ahead in order. Sigh-that was a disappointing discovery ... I was more than ready to be done with all the storylines and secondary characters from that outing, The ridiculousness of Kay and what she will or will not accept as she stumbles through life dragging everyone that worships her through a muck of outrageous coincidences is off the charts in this one. I can't think of anything to say that won't be a spoiler, so will leave it simply as - Really Kay?

Red Mist

Had me on pins and needles! This was a reread waiting for #25. Great narrative!

Narrator doing male voice not good

Original narrator was best and the stupid sound effects that have been added in the last couple of books makes no sense at all

Stop the Music!

I am listening to all of these books to discover what happens to the characters I've invested so much time in from the beginning of the series. These later books are not as well-written as the earlier ones. They feel churned out. Even this title seems silly and arbitrary. I find for the Audible books that when I get used to a particularly good narrator and then the narrator is switched it is distracting for me. But the most distracting thing is the horrid music! The first time I heard it was late at night, and I honestly thought I was hearing things. It was again arbitrary and so distracting from listening to the story. If I wanted to listen to music, if we can call it that, I'd listen to music. It's too late, I understand but please stop! I honestly want to call it quits and not listen to any more of these books but as mentioned I am invested in finding out what happens to the main characters, Kay, Lucy, Marino, and Benten.

Stop with the music.

Stop with the music at the end of select chapters please. Overall I did love the ending.

Best of the best

I love this series Can’t put it down Never guessed twins 🙃🙃🙃🥸🤩🥳. Keep me guessing until the end

Story is fine

Cj crit should read all the scarpetta books. It’s a shame to have a great story and not a great narrator
