From Potter's Field

by Patricia Cornwell

I've been on a Patricia Cornwell kick lately. She's one of the original forensic science writers, and many of her stories are similar to those you'd see on CSI or Law & Order. I like to pepper them through my reading list so I don't overdose on literary fiction. Cornwell books are like brain sorbet for my reading palate, and I mean that in a good way.

Of her Kay Scarpetta series, I'd also recommend Postmortem and The Body Farm. They're older books, but worth revisiting if crime fiction is your kind of reading.
