Disappointing. The constant yelling and arguing in Dr Scarpetta's dysfunctional family is loud and endless. I remember her niece Lucy as a teenage PITA in the books; she hasn't improved much as an adult. Jamie Lee Curtis, whom I normally love, is totally miscast as Scarpetta's eccentric and obnoxious sister. And the two of them are at each other's throat nonstop.
The constant back and forth between Scarpetta young and Scarpetta in the present is confusing. To be frank, the first episode almost gave me a headache. Since the next episode would probably succeed, I'm crossing this off my watchlist.
