The Front Audiobook

" The ending was ridiculous. But a good silly read for the plane. "

" Not a lot of substance to this one. Love her Scarpetta series, but this one just isn't as good. "

" Win Garano is such a likeable character, Cornwell could have done much better with him. "

" I didn't like this one. I don't like the characters. This and the book that came before it, At Risk, just go in circles--there is no character transformation at all. And when you're not wild about the characters to begin with, well . . .. "

" Very quick read; summer reading. Boston police, murder story. "

" Short and disappointing. A good mystery takes time to set up and solve. This isn't. Not up to her usual level of a good story. "

" This was the first Patricia Cornwell I had ever read and it was great. Made me read more of her work. "

" Fast-paced mystery; I liked it. I did not read At Risk yet, so I feel like I missed some essential information about the characters. "

" This was an OK book, and I would read another in this series. "

" what is the deal with short novels with little point, plot or storyline developement? It seems when Patricia Cornwell strays from her tried and true formula of Kay Scarpetta, her writing skills take a nosedive. Good thing for her she has a following of fans! "

" The plot was confusing, the characters were confusing. And being written in present tense didn't help it any. I expected more from Cornwell. "

" If nothing else, Cornwell seems to be enjoying writing the At Risk books more than just about anything else she's put out in the last few years. They're quick reads, and good ones at that. "

" I used to love Patricia Cornwell, but her writing seems to be going downhill rather than up. "

" Not up Author's usual writings, a short story that is not well written. Had to keep going back and re-read parts to understand where she was going. Expected mor as the Dr. Kay Scarpetta series are so well written and great to read. "

" Second in series about Win Garano, a short novella, quick read and more entertaining than her latest Scarpetta books. "

" Liked this book. Massachusetts state investigator Win Garano and DA Lamont try to solve a cold case of murder "

" Disappointment .. unless I just didn't "get it". The characters, plots and subplots - IMO - were not fully developed and it took the last few pages of the book for the author to explain what had happened. "

" New set of characters. I think I'll like this group. "

" Not at all the juicy meaty stuff that is usually produced by Cornwell. I was 3/4 of the way thru it still waiting for the really good stuff. Very lackluster story. "

" This was a fast read. "

" I should have followed my instincts and passed on this book. Another disappointment from Patricia Cornwell. "

" Better than the first book. I think she should have made it a little longer so that the plot wasn't so rushed. "

" Just a filler book between all my other favorites. This one rates an okay. Not one of Cornwell's best. It feels like it was a filler for her too. "

" I agree with a lot of the reviews that this was not too good and lacked a lot of character development and interest. Still, I won't be as harsh as others and just be thankful that the early Scarpetta books were great and just thank that Cornwell wrote them and I enjoyed them. "

" Hell. No. Anyone who has read "At Risk and Trace" and share my views on them will undoubtedly know the pain I felt, when I say that I read those two books and this one, pretty close together. It-was-AWFUL! I did not like the following: the entire book. "

" This was okay. I listened to it on CD in my car. "

" A short story but interesting. Win Gerano is a much different character than Kay Scarpetta. "

" I have read a lot of Patricia Cornwell and am usually a fan, but The Front falls flat. The characters and their relationships weren't fully developed. The dialog seemed forced and unnatural. The plot was convoluted. Cornwell tries to do too much in this novel and the story suffers as a result. "

" This book is probably one of my least favourite reads. "

" This was a light read in the fashion of Agatha Christie without the charm. "

" I like these characters, but I thought the plot was poorly developed. It took almost the whole book to get to the real "story" that Cornwell was trying to tell. At least that is how I felt. "

" This was a little bit of a let down since I usually love this author. I felt like the plot development was slow and the ending, although good, didn't really complete what I thought was supposed to be the main story line. "

" I used to like Patricia Cornwell....now I find they are rushed and uninspired. "

" I enjoyed this book but found at times it dragged for me. "

" Read this because I was looking for something light and fast-moving. And that it was, though the plot was a little more involved that I initially thought. "

" Brutto, ma proprio brutto...<br/>Ma chi glieli scrive questi libri alla Cornwell?<br/>E poi perchè lei li firma?<br/>.....<br/>E io perchè li leggo? "
