Description
Forensic Analyst Clare Rosser has focused her career on becoming a detective, and solving the mystery of her parents’ murder.
When a series of grisly murders leaves bodies twisted and bereft of fluid in a mummy-like state, one fact becomes apparent: The monster that killed her parents ten years ago has returned.
Fighting the bureaucracy of her own police department, as well as her own prejudices and ailing body, Clare must take matters into her own hands before more suffer the same fate.
The clues are out there. The answers lie within her. But can she find them before it's too late?

nope
I listened to this one. The narration was a mess. I suspect that the writer was English, and write using English words and turns of phrase, but he set it in the US, and it was jarring. And then they chose an English narrator. Her accents were... bad. And she used English pronunciation on certain words rather than the American pronunciation. Also jarring. Oh, man, the number of times she said skelEEEtal... Drove me bananas.
That was another thing. The book could have used another serious edit. There were a lot of repetition. See: skeletal x 50. Yeesh. And there were a lot of awkward phrasings and dialogue.
The black character says "girl" a lot, and it made me cringe. This is the second book I've read in the last month or two that used "girl, blah blah blah" as shorthand for African American and it is not cool. It's stereotypical and it's lazy.
Then the characters. They are paper thin. In the case of the protagonist, literally as well as figuratively, heh. Look, it was a monster story. Character developed doesn't really figure in. I'm ok with that, more or less, but I do feel like they author could have made just a bit more of an effort, if only to allow the reader to feel more invested in their outcomes.
