There is alot i can say about this book but i only need to say one, and that is that this book is the best book i ever read. The main reason that this book got my attention and a high rating is because i could really see where the charators are coming from.

Oh dear...
It is a shame, but judging by this, Isle Of Dogs and Hornet's Nest it looks like Patricia Cornwell is incapable of writing any novels other than those featuring Dr. Kay Scarpetta. All three of those novels are puerile nonsense of the highest order, featuring clairvoyant crime solving cats in this one, typing crime solving dogs in Isle Of Dogs...and thats just for starters. Anyone who has ever read Cornwell's intelligent Scarpetta novels will feel this is another author entirely here working with Cornwell's name attached to shift copies. Utter trash, deeply unentertaining and downright offensive in how it insults its reader's intelligence.

I like Cornwell's Scarpetta books, but I've read so many of them now that I'm beginning to feel I know the pattern. This is something totally different. I loved the characters, especially the cat :)

As usual I enjoyed the book. I have yet to read a Cornwell book that I have not enjoyed. I liked the humor of the animals and the characters. They are very lifelike and I would recommend the book to anyone.

Chuck Mayo Comedic satire? I usually don't have to be told when something's funny. Southern Cross is a real turkey; bizarre, bordering on the surreal. Take a tip from me... If you like Patricia Cornwell's novels, don't read Southern Cross... you may never pick up another one.

Tui McMillan I was glad that this book was a Xmas gift and that I didn't spend the money on it. Almost as though Cornwell is trying to branch out and appeal to a whole new readership - I think it could be someone else sharing her name - not a good book.
