Scarpetta Series Divides Critics with Blend of Past and Present
The long-awaited Prime Video adaptation of Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta book series features high-caliber acting talent but has divided critical reception. The series draws plot elements from "Postmortem" and "Autopsy" and creates a medical mystery drama that, despite stellar casting, cannot agree on its identity. The result is an incoherent work that wavers between different narrative approaches.
