About "At Risk"

I gave "At Risk" by Particia Cornwell one star.  The book started out okay, handsome detective assigned to solve a 20-year-old mystery using modern day DNA techniques, but it soon turned into a jumbled mess.  Too many characters not well developed and a convoluted plot that jumped all over the place.  It was sometimes hard to follow, and after I finished it I went back and skimmed the whole thing thinking I must have fallen asleep while reading it and missed something.  I didn't.  It's that messed up.  To top it all off, it was only about 200 pages long and a small book.  Good thing.  I probably couldn't have taken much more of it.  Don't bother with this one folks!
