Part of my issue with the book was certainly personal-among other things*, I just don't like Cammie very much. Angel of Death was not an exception, except that not much of the book dealt with the actual forensics. The subject is just, well, neat, but as of yet, the characterization and writing in every forensic mystery I've read gets overshadowed by the science-for me, the investigation and the detecting work steal the show. I still haven't found a forensics series that I adore, adult or YA. HottieMcHotHot Eagle Scout Kyle O'Neil-who takes a shine to Cammie during the investigation-and there's suddenly a lot going on in a usually sleepy Colorado town. But Cammie hasn't told her father.Īdd to that an extremely dead high school teacher found by Big Man On Campus Mr. And then there's that whole thing with her mother: for reasons explained and explored in the first book, Cammie's mother hasn't really been in the picture in a long, long time. She and Deputy Crowley are clearly attracted to each other, but she's still in high school AND they work together. So The Angel of Death is not my first go-round with Cameryn Mahoney, seventeen-year-old forensic genius.Ĭammie has pressure on her from all different directions: she lives and works with her coroner father, who encourages her interest in forensics-but she also lives with her Catholic grandmother, who thinks that her interest is going to send her to Hell. I read The Christopher Killer ages and ages ago, had on-the-cooler-end-of-lukewarm feelings about it, and never got around to posting those thoughts here.

I realize that might mean I have problems. I'm a sucker for cover art that features toe tags.
