THE THRILLING KAY SCARPETTA MYSTERY FROM THE #1 GLOBAL BESTSELLER. SCARPETTA IS COMING TO THE SCREEN SOON, STARRING NICOLE KIDMAN AND JAMIE LEE CURTIS

Murder and mayhem. Scarpetta is back, and she's racing against the clock . . .

Chief medical examiner Kay Scarpetta is the reluctant star witness in a sensational murder trial when she receives shocking news. The judge's sister has been found dead. At first glance, it appears to be a home invasion, but then why was nothing stolen, and why is the garden strewn with dead plants and insects?

Although there is no apparent cause of death, Scarpetta recognizes tell-tale signs of the unthinkable, and she knows the worst is yet to come. The forensic pathologist finds herself pitted against a powerful force that returns her to the past, and her time to catch the killer is running out...

I love all Patricia Cornwell books, she's a wonderful writer and Kay Scarpetta is a brilliant lead character. I always wait with much anticipation on each new novel to be released and this latest one did not disappoint, it was a great story and read by a very good narrator.

Great read as expected from a Scarpetta book 👍

I never thought that this way of attacking people was possible, but apparently, it is.
