"Brainteasing . . . [a] hair-raising tale with a French twist." -- People "The author's darkest and perhaps best." -- San Francisco Examiner "When [Scarpetta's] in one of her cut-'em-up moods, you want to follow her anywhere...a series that keeps picking up velocity." -- The New York Times "The forensic sequences boom with authority; the brief action sequences explode on the page. . . . A thunderhead of disquietude hangs over this compulsively readable novel, sometimes loosing storms of suspense; but to Cornwell's considerable credit, the unease arises ultimately not from the steady potential for violence, but from a more profound horror: the vulnerability of a good woman like Kay to a world beset by the corrupt, the cruel, the demonic." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Cornwell's latest villain is a wonderful creation. . . . [Her] detail-laden descriptions of autopsies, gleaned from her work experience on the staff of a Virginia chief medical examiner, offers the same kind of unique insight Tom Clancy provides concerning high-tech weaponry. . . . Black Notice is a pleasant step forward. . . . The villain is cracker-jack, the chase is exciting...Good for Patricia Cornwell, and even better for her many fans." -- Fort Worth Star-Telegram "It is fascinating to watch Scarpetta and her supporting cast . . . become more and more themselves...especially in such a brilliantly paced adventure as this one." -- Kirkus Reviews, Praise for Black Notice "Brainteasing...[a] hair-raising tale with a French twist."-- People "The author's darkest and perhaps best."-- San Francisco Examiner "When [Scarpetta's] in one of her cut-'em-up moods, you want to follow her anywhere...a series that keeps picking up velocity."-- The New York Times "The forensic sequences boom with authority; the brief action sequences explode on the page...A thunderhead of disquietude hangs over this compulsively readable novel, sometimes loosing storms of suspense; but to Cornwell's considerable credit, the unease arises ultimately not from the steady potential for violence, but from a more profound horror: the vulnerability of a good woman like Kay to a world beset by the corrupt, the cruel, the demonic."-- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Cornwell's latest villain is a wonderful creation...[Her] detail-laden descriptions of autopsies, gleaned from her work experience on the staff of a Virginia chief medical examiner, offers the same kind of unique insight Tom Clancy provides concerning high-tech weaponry...

    Item arrived as stated in used but good condition. It was a great price for used. A new copy would have cost a lot more. It was shipped out fast and arrived in secure envelope. Seller did a great job with this entire transaction. I’m very happy with seller and would order from them again. Thank you seller, great job. A+. JL

    There was a mixup during packaging where a paperback copy was picked and shipped for a hard cover copy that was ordered. I asked the seller about it and they honestly replied that the mistake was on their end. A full refund for the item was sent immediately and I will not hesitate to order more from ZBK. Very responsive and they stand behind their items and make good on any issues.
