Then I got hold of Kathy Reichs's books, "Fatal Voyage" being the first, I was hooked, and I began to analyze why I liked Reichs more than Scarpetta. "Port Mortuary" is my return to reading Scarpetta after four years and I discovered why I stayed away so long.I am pretty sick of her whining about Marino and Lucy and Benton. It really does get old so get on with the CASES, please! I am a professional content editor, so I hope I project some modicum of credibility.Cornwell's scientific and forensic knowledge is excellent, and her ability to build a case is beyond reproach. But all the injections and interruptions of personal angst and sturn und drang is SO annoying, I end up skimming over fifty percent of the book. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ... Cornwell delivers another compelling thriller featuring one of her favorite characters, Dr *by L***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2017* Bestselling author Patricia Cornwell delivers another compelling thriller featuring one of her favorite characters, Dr. Kay Scarpetta who finds herself solving one of the most deadliest cases of her entire career!........After fulfilling a six-month obligation of hard training by dealing with death on behalf of the US government's armed forces, chief medical examiner for the Commerce of Massachusetts Dr. Kay Scarpetta is about to confront one of the most bazaar murder cases of her entire career. As director of (CFC)Cambridge Forensic Center and Port Mortuary, Kay finds herself investigating the crime scene of a young man who's murder was captured on a digital recording, and not only was he stabbed by an unknown assailant, but he was speared in the back by a high-tech instrument, and she's about to discover that this case was much closer to home than she ever thought possible. When the murders of a football player, and a little boy are discovered, Kay is stunned to learn that her Deputy Chief medical examiner Jack Fielding has disappeared without a trace, and as she digs deeper in all three cases, the evidence leads her with startling results, but not before she is plagued by chilling questions. Were the two murders connected in both deaths? More important, why was her employee missing from the face of the earth? Because he gave false information on the little boy's cause of death? What has happened to Jack Fielding? What trouble has he caused? Could the small boy's death be related to the dead man lying in the morgue? Was she dealing with some renegade scientist, or even worse, more than one? As Kay delves even deeper when the trace evidence leads her to the unfathomable truth, nothing will prepare her for the unbelievable realization when she is forced to face the shocking truth of disloyalty, mistrust, and betrayal by those she loved most in the world both professionally and personally!........ ### ⭐⭐ Interesting *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2018* I was on vacation at the beach recently, and the cabin had this book. I was a huge Cornwell fan in the 90s. This book was OK, but like the other reviews said, Cornwell has these bizarre absolutely narcissistic segments of her work that simply detract from the story. I ended up not finishing the book at the beach, but buying it on Kindle because I had 80 pages to go and the other reviews said this was a can't-miss segment of the book. Despite my misgivings, they were right. I used to love Cornwell novels, but lately her work isn't as good. This will be the last one I read. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ro/products/3714027-port-mortuary-kay-scarpetta-book-18](https://www.desertcart.ro/products/3714027-port-mortuary-kay-scarpetta-book-18) --- *Product available on Desertcart Romania* *Store origin: RO* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
