 In this book, we find a body on the MIT property, and it is believed to be a computer grad student who had previously went missing. Kay is concerned that Lucy has something to do with it, which wouldn't be a shock in the least. Kay, Benton, Marino, and Lucy are always tied into every single murder and mishap that goes on it seems. It is really impossible to believe that people have this much drama in their lives, just because of their career paths. I have stuck through this series for twenty one books now, and will continue on just out of principal, but that whole arc is tired. Lucy is not behaving much better in this book than she does in all the others. I wish she would go away. Marino is still a petulant child at his age because Kay is just all about Benton and now him. He needs to get over himself. Kay needs to get over herself. Everyone just needs to get over themselves and stop being involved with weirdos. What pages there are dedicated to forensics and crime solving are as well as ever, but we have to contend too much with nonsense from the main characters. I am starting to really understand all of the negative reviews that keep popping up the longer this series runs, which is sad.
