A review by jrmama42
Red Mist by Patricia Cornwell
3.0
It's been a while since I've read a Patricia Cornwell book and, frankly, I was growing a bit tired of the characters and stories. I decided to give the audio version of this book a try. I liked the story, which had a frighteningly realistic plot line (bio-terrorism) and some interesting characters. It wasn't one of my favorite Scarpetta novel - I liked the earlier ones better - but it held my interest.
It's always hard to hear someone else voice characters you're familiar with, as you have their voices set in your mind a certain way. That was one factor that worked against the audio format of this book for me. While most characters were okay, I really didn't like the way the narrator voiced Pete Marino or Lucy. But other than that, it came across quite well in audio format, and made it possible for me to "read" while doing other things.
