How can the world’s most prolific author go so far off track.

Story lacked cohesion. Except for the main characters that make up the Women’s Murder Club who cares about the characters. If you don’t care -why read?

Forensic pathologist Dr. Kay Scarpetta has come almost full circle, returning to Virginia, the state where she launched her storied career, as the chief medical examiner. Finding herself the new girl in town once again after being away for many years, she’s inherited both an overbearing secretary and a legacy of neglect and potential corruption.

Cornwell?

I may have read all the earlier Kay Scarpetta novels so I find it hard to believe this is the concoction of the same author. There are several different story lines, little or no connection between them, and most peculiar of all is that the bad guy is not referenced in the story. He is revealed in the epilogue. O, I don’t want to forget to mention that one of the plot lines involves murder in outer space!

A Different Kind of Daughter tells of Maria's harrowing journey to play the sport she knew was her destiny, first living as a boy and roaming the violent back alleys of the frontier city of Peshawar, rising to become the number one female squash player in Pakistan. For Maria, squash was more than liberation - it was salvation. But it was also a death sentence, thrusting her into the national spotlight and the crosshairs of the Taliban, who wanted Maria and her family dead. Maria knew her only chance of survival was to flee the country.

The story Maria tells sends a valuable lesson on many levels. On a personal level it tells us to stick by our dreams, parents must stick up for their kids dreams. On a political level it re-emphasizes the terror and danger posed by violent extremists. And it filled me with joy that this young woman can live in freedom pursuing her goals in Canada.

Patrick Kennedy's story wrapped within that of his parents and extended family is one in common with so many not as famous or advantaged. The lives of the Kennedy's are tabloid popcorn so that is of interest but this book educates us about the many forms of brain illness- alcoholism, drug addiction, mental illness and post traumatic stress. Patrick turned his personal illness, a "lemon" into lemon aid, a life's work for mental health parity.
