Throwback Thursday: Body Parts by Vicki Stiefel
Author: Vicki Stiefel
First published in 2004 by Leisure Books
A homicide counselor must find a serial killer to prove one of her patients is innocent.
The synopsis is pretty sparse, but Body Parts is essentially about Tally White. She is a homicide counselor with the Medical Examiner's office. She and her colleagues counsel family members of homicide victims. When one of her friends is murdered and a patient in her grief group is accused, Tally gets drawn into a tangled puzzle that ends up with her as bait.
I almost gave up on this book. It was too long, with too many characters to keep straight. But I found myself wanting to know who the killer was and why he was doing it. I was definitely surprised! That twist was pretty cool. The reveal however wasn't enough to say I loved the book. I wasn't even all that crazy about the main character.
This is the first in a series. I'm not sure I will continue with it though. If I do, I definitely won't listen to the audiobook if it is the same narrator. The one on this audiobook wasn't very good and some of the voices grated on my nerves.
