About this listen

An intriguing Dr Kay Scarpetta book which will take Kay an ocean's breadth away from home.

The decomposed remains of a stowaway lead Dr Kay Scarpetta on an international search to Interpol’s headquarters in Lyon, France - and on a mission that will pull her in two opposite directions: Toward protecting her career or toward the truth.

Critic reviews

"Cornwell's books run on high octane fuel, a cocktail of adrenalin and fear. Black Notice is no exception." ( The Times)
" Black Notice is undoubtedly her best book for some time: Not only because of some excellent scalpel work, but mainly because it is not so much about crime as about Scarpetta." ( Evening Standard)
"Imitators now abound, but - pathologically speaking - nobody does it like Cornwell." ( Literary Review)

Narrator Lorelei King is brilliant. Story is ok.... felt the character of Bray and Anderson could have been developed over another novel or two. Still a gripping story. Still think Scarpetta comes across too weak at times for someone capable of doing her job.

Not the best Scarpetta novel but decent. 7/10

I am re-reading/listening to this series. I had forgotten how poorly Kay treated Moreno, how narcissistic Kay is and how Lucy desperately needs therapy and should not be ATF. Since I didn't get too far into the series back in the 90's, I hope by the time I make it to book 20 Kay starts to calm down and treat Moreno like the friend he is. At this point, she doesn't deserve him. Lucy is a petulant child. Enough said. Black notice was a really good progression into Kay's grief of Benton.

Brilliant
